Shiquita surpasses issues with treatment regardless of the stigma surrounding mental illness and treatment. She appreciates being able to connect and understand those who feel misunderstood and disconnected from most.

My therapeutic approach is a collaboration with the client in order to build trust and self efficacy. I utilize CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused therapies.
Explore the ways your environment, experiences, and relationships have shaped you. I am sincerely curious about your "whys." We will explore deeper patterns of thoughts and emotions, and will challenge you to use your strengths to improve coping.

My approach is integrative, and I can accompany you on any path you choose. I am certified in Trauma Focused-CBT and trained in DBT, CBT, and Mindfulness. Family work explores family dynamics and how generational patterns impact current functioning.
Examine how your past is connected to your present, identify problematic relationship patterns, and figure out how you want to apply these insights to your life so that you can be kinder to yourself, enjoy deeper relationships, and live with meaning.

I will help you to slow down and lean INTO your emotions, especially the uncomfortable ones you’re so good at avoiding. Psychodynamic psychotherapy is an intense process, but I will support and guide you as we explore the terrain of your inner life.
Whether you are looking for specific trauma-focused treatment, contemplating the use of substances in your life, or just exploring therapy for a stressful life transition, I would be honored to be a part of your journey.
