Hi there, I'm Imani!

I specialize in supporting clients navigating grief, anxiety, or depression, offering a compassionate space for healing. I value giving clients the room to talk through their experiences openly while working together on meaningful steps forward. Together, we focus on building motivation, resilience, and a path that feels authentic to you.

My focus

I work with young adults, older adults, and single mothers navigating anxiety, life transitions, grief, racial trauma, and self-esteem challenges. Together, we’ll build coping skills and create a personalized plan for growth that feels both empowering and achievable.

My approach

I use a motivational interviewing approach that centers your voice and empowers you to decide what will work best for your healing. I’m committed to creating a non-judgmental, person-centered space where you can talk freely while knowing I’m fully present and listening.
