These can all be normal struggles that most of us experience but don't always know how to solve or feel better about.

We all face challenges in life and sometimes we just need a little extra support. My goal as a counselor is to provide that support and collaborate with you to develop the necessary skills to manage those challenges. I primarily work with children, adolescents, and young adults struggling with social, emotional, and behavioral issues. I aim to create a safe, comfortable, and accepting atmosphere for all of my clients.

I am a licensed professional counselor with over ten years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families. I specialize in working with couples on premarital, relationship, and marital issues. I also work with adults with anxiety, depression, anger management, PTSD, addictive behaviors, grief, loss, and bereavement. I use The Gottman Method for marital and Prepare-Enrich for premarital counseling. I use CBT to work with clients to achieve harmony, especially in depression and anxiety. I meet clients where they are emotionally, and together we explore their life according to their comfort level to bring healing.

It can be difficult to navigate finding mental health care, but you’ve made it this far. I view my role as holding a warm space for us to explore what is working and not working for you in your life. Most of us weren’t taught how to experience our emotions mindfully and respond with intention. It makes sense that many of us struggle with responding to our emotions compassionately. I may help you identify, understand, and accept difficult internal experiences while taking meaningful action in your life.

I am in-network with Highmark, UPMC, and Aetna commercial insurance.
Kionna knows trauma impacts both the mind and body, and believes healing both leads to lasting recovery. While clients may grasp their truth, unresolved emotions can leave them feeling stuck or disconnected. As an EMDRIA certified therapist, she provides trauma treatment at the highest standard, using EMDR and somatic approaches to help clients process trauma, regulate their nervous system, and reclaim a sense of safety and empowerment.

Life can be so hard. It shouldn't be, but it is. Our culture produces symptoms of depression, anxiety, ADHD, addiction, etc. We weren't meant to live this way and to confront the constant stream of stressors we face on a daily basis. 40+ hour work weeks, struggling to make ends meet, supporting others while we struggle to support ourselves, unexpected life events, financial instability, always reaching and striving for the next benchmark, promotion, or grade. The list goes on and on and it often feels overwhelming and impossible. I believe that those systems are the problem, not you, and I want to help you navigate it better.

“Yoga means addition—addition of energy, strength, and beauty to body, mind, and soul.”—Amit Ray, Indian author and spiritualist In order to get to the root of what’s causing your discomfort we have to go towards and not away. This is painful but will cause change. I’m going to ask you to share your story with me. But you don’t have to do it alone. I see myself as both a support and a fierce advocate for clients to assist with their growth and navigation through the barriers. Through the addition of support and guidance I can help increase your energy strength and beauty of your self as a whole.

In my work with clients, I emphasize the power of self-expression as a path to greater self-awareness and healing. Expression plays a vital role in our everyday lives, especially when navigating through challenging experiences like grief and trauma. I approach therapy with a person-centered, trauma-informed, and strength-based perspective, meeting clients where they are and helping them make meaningful changes toward healing. As an Art Therapist, I have the ability to use creative techniques to assist with expression.

My ideal clients are people navigating life's transitions, daily stress, or the lingering weight of past experiences — those who sense something needs to change but aren't sure where to start. They come seeking clarity, relief, and a stronger sense of self.
I work collaboratively to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore what's holding you back, identify patterns that no longer serve you, and build new ones that do. Together, we'll find your voice and chart a path toward the life you actually want.

“In any given moment, we have two options: to step forward into growth or step back into safety.” My ideal client is tired of “playing it safe” and is open to the newness that change brings. My ideal client is not only searching for a way out of their situation, but they are ready to gain the tools needed to improve their quality of life. Therapy is not about being told what to do, it’s finding a great fit with a skilled clinician who will join you in your journey to wellness. Rather than trying to fix things on your own, why not collaborate with someone who celebrates your individuality and incorporates it in your healing process?

My counseling service has been a good fit for professionals, entrepreneurs, students, teachers and administrators. In our first session together, we will talk about what you are seeking for counseling and how I can be of help to you. We'll talk about a brief history and how your problems have come about. We'll also discuss your areas of strengths, challenges and goals for our future sessions. I view counseling as a process of learning, wellness, growth and change. Due to my Asian Indian background, aside from English, I also speak Hindi, Telugu and Tamil. I also work well with immigrant, LGBTQ, minority communities.

It’s unsettling to be in the world as it is, especially for queer folks. It’s time to rise up, face our fears, and heal and nurture ourselves. I work exclusively with those in this beautiful, sparkly, rainbow-hued community to help with transitions and troubles, navigate life's journey, and thrive. I give feedback and use my life experiences to connect, to view situations in new ways, clarify ideas, and invite them to try new things.
