Aya Hackett

My communication style

I strive to create an environment that feels safe, warm, and inviting—a place where you can truly be yourself without fear of judgment. I approach therapy with a tone of calmness and empathy, allowing space for openness and vulnerability.

My journey to mental healthcare

My passion for advocating the importance of mental health grew stronger as I entered adulthood. Understanding that we are all going through different things in this life journey, but realizing that they shape us, I had a mission to break the stigma surrounding it, especially in the black community.

My goals for you

I believe in a collaborative and personalized approach. I work closely with you to identify what feels meaningful and relevant, ensuring that the goals we set align with your values, needs, and long-term vision. Together, we break down larger aspirations into manageable steps.

Our first session

During the first session, we’ll begin with a warm introduction and talk about what brought you to therapy. You’ll have space to ask any questions so you feel comfortable and informed. We’ll gently begin exploring your goals and whether this feels like the right fit for you.
