About Ki
Hi there! My name is Kieara but, I am affectionately called 'Ki' by my clients and friends! I am a Black Woman (capital B), Wife, Boy Mama, Big Sister, Navy Veteran, and a true girls girl!
My professional career started in the United States Navy where I served for 8 years. During that time, I co-facilitated group therapy in a military substance abuse rehabilitation program.
Educationally, I have a BA in Human Services from Columbia College and an MSW (Master of Social Work) from the University of South Florida, with a concentration in clinical practice with individuals, families, and groups in agency or organization-based community practice settings.
What makes my practice truly special is the Sistahood, the space for care, understanding, and real connection. My clients often come to me on some of their hardest days, and being able to show what love, support, and genuine understanding look like is what I love most about this work.
As the saying goes, “People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care,” and that belief guides everything I do. Here, we build strong, healthy therapeutic relationships while also gently guiding you toward healthier ways to cope, express yourself, and grow.
