Welcome! I am a Doctor of Social Work and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina. I started my social work career in 2005, working with children and families of all ages, races, sexual orientations, genders, and abilities. I have assisted clients with depression, anxiety, attachment, grief/loss, parenting concerns, relationship challenges, trauma, abuse, Bipolar, adjustment issues, and more. I helped families address various concerns that revolved around child abuse, child neglect, domestic violence, substance abuse, self-esteem, and beyond. My current focus areas include sexual trauma, anxiety, work with transgender individuals, and the impact of adverse childhood experiences throughout the life span. I also enjoy working with queer and lesbian women of color interested in processing race, ethnicity, and sexuality concerns at the intersections of gender, oppression, and other unique experiences. My counseling style is client-centered, down-to-earth, and engaging. I integrate my humor and acts of holistic practice to include aromatherapy, healing rituals, and more. While I am not strictly a cognitive behavioral therapist (CBT), I often use CBT and find it helpful if clients are empowered to understand and use CBT outside of the traditional therapy session. Also, I use solution-focused techniques, motivational interviewing, and aspects of reality therapy, to name a few. As a social worker, I am strength-based and conceptualize clients' needs with their unique environments in mind. My goal is to help my clients be the most authentic and empowered version of themselves and live unapologetically real. The process of uncovering and discovering takes courage, strength, and hard work, something most of us have and need a little reassurance. If you are ready to begin a new therapy journey, I will be a professional support for you. You got this! The therapeutic relationship is critical and one of the most important aspects of a successful experience. I consider it a privilege to assist individuals on their journey. I look forward to working with you! In Kindness and Wellness, Kisha

I am a dually licensed clinician in North Carolina and possess an additional license in Florida as well. Having started my education later in my adult life, I believed I had arrived late to the game. But I found that life experience paired with my own belief system, allowed me the opportunity to view life's challenges through a unique lens. Throughout my career I have held different positions in mental health. I started at the bottom, and through my education worked my way up, and, because of that I have been able to experience different perspectives while working with this population. I have experience working in addictions residential treatment, Intensive Outpatient Programs, facilitating support groups, teaching life skills, as well as speaking engagements, Through a Christian approach I have worked with many individuals struggling with low self-esteem, purpose, guilt and shame, and a variety of other life's obstacles and helping clients resolve them.

In addition to my Christian counseling experiences, I also use a multitude of other evidence-based practices, including, but not limited to, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Motivational Therapy.

I am licensed as a L.C.S.W. (Licensed Clinical Social Worker). This license allows me to do the clinical work of psychotherapy in the state of North Carolina. My Master's Degree in Social Work had an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy. I did additional training in the area of Alcohol and Drug treatment post graduate school. I have over 30 years of professional work experience. In that time, I have worked with children, adolescents, couples, individual adults, families/stepfamilies and the elderly. I have worked in in-patient settings, out-patient, residential treatment, Intensive Outpatient and private practice. My academic training was primarily in the area of Structural and Strategic Family Systems, and those ideas are the basic underpinnings of my work. I try to meet my clients where they are at and where they feel comfortable as a starting point. Dependent upon the issues presented and your goals we might delve into your past family of origin issues. But therapy could also be focused primarily on present day experiences and concerns. A lot of my work is in guiding people to learn to improve their life by changing their thoughts and behaviors (Cognitive - Behavioral Therapy). Additionally, I have had past training in the treatment of Trauma. I also focus on the impact on mental and physical health due to larger societal issues such as racism and other forms of discrimination. I support efforts at Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in healthcare. Therapy does not have to be a long, drawn-out process in order to be effective. Sometimes a few sessions may be all that is needed for problem resolution. Many people opt for ongoing therapy as a way to check in and hold themselves accountable for the changes they have made as a result of therapy. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage as it can be scary revealing private information to a stranger. Most people report some benefits to having seen a therapist. You never know how therapy may benefit you unless you try it. I hope the journey for you is one that brings enlightenment, strength and a renewed sense of yourself.
