Tkeyah is a great therapist - she’s very knowledgeable and a great listener. I feel very comfortable opening up to her and feeling confident in her assessments. She has been instrumental in helping me navigate this new chapter in my life. If you’re on the fence about starting therapy, I highly recommend her!
