Hi there, I'm Tekia!
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Academy of Certified Social Workers (ACSW) credential holder, and Certified Personality Disorder Treatment Provider (C-PD). I provide empathetic, culturally responsive, trauma-informed care for individuals navigating mental health, substance use, and life challenges.
My focus
I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, relationship concerns, and major life transitions. I also support clients experiencing emotional and behavioral patterns that affect relationships, daily functioning, and overall well-being.
My approach
My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and tailored to your needs. I use CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to help you understand patterns, build coping skills, regulate emotions, and create meaningful, lasting change.
