Human beings' brains are wired for affiliation. Healthy relationships are crucial to our physical and mental health. Neuroscience is only now able to show the positive effects of mutual, evolving social and familial connections to other people. Often, people come to therapy to find out why they feel so stressed, or unfulfilled, or why their relationships are not all they would hope for. Is there an underlying trauma? Is there a genetic component? I believe that most people have their answers, they just need safe spaces where they can explore the issues. I will help you look for solutions from within yourself.

I see therapy as an opportunity for fostering personal growth and achieving emotional maturity. We all face challenges and struggles at various points in our lives. Failure to overcome these challenges can lead to feelings of anxiety and depression and may impact one's relationship with family and friends. While we can't change the past, therapy can help uncover long-standing patterns and behaviors that can get in the way of fulfilling relationships with ourselves and others. I will help you understand the problems you are facing and find meaning and solutions that work best for you.

Therapy can be enlightening, informative, life-changing, and sometimes even life-saving. I believe in the power of psychotherapy & human connection. More importantly though I believe in you, as a person, to have the power to access the ability for growth. My ideal client is someone who is willing to challenge themselves by digging deep & connecting the dots between how your past life experiences may be affecting your present self through your thoughts, emotions, or behaviors. I have experience in treating trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, relationship issues, and injustices in the legal system.

In a world filled with uncertainty, adversity, and ever-changing expectations, it makes sense for us to need additional support and someone who is not our family or our friends to hold space for our story. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, crisis, or just difficulty with your day to day tasks, I would be honored to walk with you through this moment in your life and help you to develop tools to help you navigate with more confidence and agency. I have spent my career working with teens, young adults and adults navigating life's unexpected and distressing moments.

I have undergone extensive training in assisting individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, and trauma, including those affected by vicarious trauma. Additionally, a key aspect of my therapeutic practice involves working with individuals facing interpersonal challenges, particularly those grappling with inappropriate guilt and difficulties in emotional vulnerability. I believe that effective therapy extends beyond mere symptom management, necessitating an exploration of the foundational factors that may have contributed to current thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

My approach is grounded in contemporary psychoanalytic psychotherapy with individuals and families. By creating a space for depth, openness, and exploration, we can understand how the present moment and early relationships shape a sense of self, relationships, and underlying emotional patterns. Within this therapeutic space, we have a chance for new experiences, transformation, self-understanding, and meaningful change. I work with children, adolescents, and families from a variety of backgrounds, drawing on developmental theories to support inner growth, deepen self-awareness, cultivate self-knowledge, and increase resilience.

Adversity happens. Whether you're facing an acute challenge or navigating longstanding struggles, I believe in each person’s inherent capacity to heal and thrive. While life’s difficulties can be overwhelming, therapy offers a powerful path toward clarity, resilience, and lasting positive change. As a psychologist, I take great care in tailoring treatment to meet each patient’s unique needs and goals. I ascribe to an evidence-based, cultural-relational, and patient-centered approach—working closely with patients to integrate meaningful interventions from CBT, ACT, DBT, MI, and EFT modalities.

I work with a variety of people with a common set of experiences-the after effects of trauma, both childhood and throughout the lifespan. Untreated trauma is often accompanied by anxiety, depression, physical problems and addictions.

Hello! I am Imanii Uwakwe, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker! As a therapist, my goal is to ensure you are always comfortable. To me, therapy is an art; you have your own canvas where you can splash and create or recreate your masterpiece with various colors, shapes, and meanings. In this, you are in charge of your painting, with my assistance, of course.

First off it's a big deal to decide it's time for therapy. If you're looking for a nerdy weirdo therapist I might be the one. Your goals are my goals. I believe therapy is a relationship meant to empower people to make their own decisions. I’m not one to tell people what to do, but I will point in different directions so you can figure out what you need for yourself. Rapport is very important to me. A therapeutic alliance does not work without trust and mutual respect. I bring a balance of talk therapy with more holistic directives. I am also a huge nerd, I believe fandom can be healing and bring that into therapy where appropriate.

Our most important relationships are also often those we struggle with. I am an expert listener, advisor, and facilitator and, working together, we’ll turn struggles into opportunity and strife into increased connection.
