Alfreda Small

My communication style

My communication style is warm, open, and collaborative. I create a calm and affirming space where you can express yourself freely without judgment. I listen with care, offer gentle feedback, and help you explore solutions that feel authentic and empowering for you.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist because I’ve witnessed how life’s pressures, burnout, and emotional challenges can weigh heavily, especially on Black women. My own experiences with navigating stress and seeking balance inspired me to create a safe, understanding space where others can heal, grow, and feel empowered in their lives.

My goals for you

I work with clients to identify meaningful goals that reflect their values and priorities. Together, we break these goals into manageable steps, track progress, and adjust as needed. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and solution-focused, helping you achieve growth at your own pace.

Our first session

In our first session, we’ll get to know each other and explore what brings you to therapy. I’ll listen closely to your experiences, help you identify your goals, and discuss what approach will best support your growth. Together, we’ll create a safe, collaborative space to start your journey toward healing.
