Hi, I'm Nadiya! Growing up is a time of wonder and challenges. Sometimes these challenges need a little help from a child therapist. I approach therapy for young people as an opportunity for them to grow from the challenges of life, develop a stronger sense of self, and feel more secure and connected to themselves and the world around them. Through therapy, they can develop a toolbox within themselves, an anchor, to always come back to as they continue to grow and successfully take on challenges. I hope through their time in therapy, they honor their capacity and strengths.

As a School Counselor of 18 years at all grade levels, a daughter and daughter in law of aging parents, and as the proud mother of 3 now grown children, I have experienced the affects and been well educated on supporting those with Learning Disabilities, Gender Identity, Aging, Anxiety, Addiction, Disordered Eating, and general Mental Health Concerns.
My experience, knowledge gained, and intentional growth thus far has allowed me to trust a combination of DBT Therapy and Skills, Value Work, and healing to start or continue moving towards a life worth living for our greatest good and highest purpose. Although this is an ongoing process, we often times show up and reach out when we are uncomfortable and finding it hard to have joyful moments. When struggles are with other folks... may it be family, co-workers, freinds, etc. we need to get more in touch with our values, set our own boundaries, manage our own expectations! That's the ticket!
