About
Hello, I am Chemenda Sawyer. I am a licensed mental health therapist. Choosing to seek counseling can be difficult and overwhelming. Not to mention intimidating. I want to reassure you I provide support and guidance without judgment. I am committed to providing a safe space that facilitates growth and development. I empower my clients to change and confront their negative self-talk and self-doubt; in a non-judgmental, empathetic, hopeful way. It is okay to ask for help.

I take a cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused approach. I am committed to building a positive therapeutic relationship that facilitates insight, personal growth, and development. I explore patterns and work with the client to find potential solutions. I serve as a guide on your journey to discovery and empowerment. It would be an honor to work with you.
