Keyira is an excellent therapist. She’s a great listener, gives important reflective feedback, and provides support working through life challenges. I would highly recommend her to women and men, especially of color, who want someone who understands diverse realities.

Keyira is understanding and patient, and a wonderful woman inside and out. She has been so caring and helpful, all with a great sense of humor. She is so wise and her questions helped me get to the root of things. I was hesitant to join therapy again after a bad therapist experience but Keyira has totally transformed that - if you’re looking for someone you can trust and open up to, Keyira is the one for you!
