Hi, I'm Makeda (Kee)! I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, and major life transitions. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns you want to change, struggling in your relationships, or simply looking for a better way forward, therapy can give you the space to understand what's going on and figure out what comes next.

With 7 years of experience, I bring a warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative approach to therapy. We'll look at what's contributing to the challenges you're facing, build on the strengths you already have, and develop practical ways to help you feel more confident, emotionally balanced, and connected to the life you want. My goal is for therapy to feel supportive and genuine while still helping you create meaningful change.
