My name is Teerah, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in trauma work with adolescents, teens, and young adults. I have worked with clients of all ages and believe therapy should feel like a safe space where you can finally stop filtering yourself. I’m very down to earth, easy to talk to, and genuinely believe nothing is “too much” to bring into session. Whether you are dealing with trauma, anxiety, relationship stress, or just feeling emotionally stuck, my goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and a little less alone in it all.

I work with high-functioning adults—often executives, entrepreneurs, and professionals—who have survived domestic violence, emotional abuse, or chronic trauma, and are ready to move beyond survival mode into real stability and direction. If you’re successful on the outside but exhausted, hypervigilant, or disconnected on the inside, this is where the real work begins.

I’m an affirming, open-minded therapist who works with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, panic, stress, relationship challenges, identity concerns, and major life changes. I also support clients dealing with maternal mental health concerns, including the emotional weight that can come with pregnancy, postpartum changes, infertility, and adjusting to a new season of life.

Since earning my master’s in 2021, I have worked in mental health with both children and adults in settings including crisis care, which has deepened my understanding of how overwhelming life can feel when symptoms start affecting your relationships, confidence, and daily routine. My goal is to offer a space that feels warm, approachable, compassionate, and real.

I was drawn to therapy because people often said I was a great listener and gave meaningful advice. What truly drives me is witnessing that lightbulb moment when a client realizes why certain patterns have shaped their life. Seeing my clients reach that understanding is what makes this work so rewarding.

Greetings! You're journey to a healthy new you starts here!

I am a seasoned therapist, with a background of working with many different populations including adults, adolescents, blended families, couples, and both professional and personal experience working with first responders. I am also trained in the trauma based approach ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy), which is specifically designed to work with those struggling with PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, and Phobias.
