Therapist

Hi, I’m Destiny. I'm a licensed psychotherapist who believes therapy should feel like a conversation with someone who truly understands you. I work with adults who are feeling anxious, depressed, disconnected, overwhelmed in relationships, have experienced trauma or just don't feel like themselves lately. I use evidence-based approaches to help you untangle what’s weighing you down and reconnect with your happiest, empowered self. If you're ready for therapy that’s both supportive and real, I’d love to meet you.
