Greetings! It’s Dr. Rashida Walker, professionally known as Dr. R or Dr. Walker, here to support you on your wellness journey. I have achieved a doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology and remain licensed as a Professional Counselor in Washington DC, Maryland, and Georgia. As an industry veteran, having worked in behavioral health spaces for well over a decade, I want to acknowledge the courage you are exercising to begin (or continue) your mental well-being journey and I want to ensure that you are finding the right fit. I am the Founder and Lead clinician of The Quiet Uprising Wellness Center, where we specialize in empowering BIPOC individuals facing various mental health challenges including anxiety, depression, boundary and communication struggles, transitions, trauma, and maternal mental health. Additionally, I find great joy in providing affirmative care to LGBTQIA+ identifying individuals and individuals who carry co-morbid physical and mental health conditions. With a commitment to evidence-based approaches and ongoing professional development, I strive to deliver tailored and effective treatment to meet each client's unique needs.
My name is Dr. Linda Iyebote, a heart-centered Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional with over a decade of experience supporting individuals through life’s most challenging and overwhelming seasons. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, PTSD, grief, relationship issues, and major life transitions. Many of the individuals I see feel stuck, mentally, emotionally, or both; and are looking for clarity, stability, and a way forward.
Hi, I'm Evelyn! As a licensed clinical social worker and certified perinatal mental health professional, I believe healing happens best in real, honest relationships. I always say, "Congrats on taking this step" because I know reaching out isn't always easy. I love working with women navigating trauma, identity, relationships, and motherhood blending attachment-based care with faith-integrated counseling for those who want it.
Starting therapy can be intimidating — I hope to help you feel less alone. As a licensed clinical social worker, my approach is grounded in meeting you where you are and helping you move toward empowerment. I support people who feel weighed down by stress or self-doubt to find more calm, confidence, and balance in their lives.
