Getting to know Cha'Kiara Payne
I am a fully licensed professional counselor with three years of experience in the field. I hold a Master's degree in Counseling and have completed two years of supervised clinical practice, followed by independent licensure over the past year. My clinical experience includes working with individuals in crisis, supporting postpartum clients, and assisting those navigating significant life transitions. I also work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, or those seeking a compassionate and nonjudgmental space for support. My goal is to provide a safe, empathetic environment to help you navigate life's challenges and move confidently into your next phase of growth.
In our first session, we’ll review your demographic information and informed consent documents, then take time to discuss what brought you to therapy in more detail. We’ll explore the information you shared in your intake paperwork and begin identifying your goals for treatment. This initial meeting also allows us to assess our compatibility and determine whether you feel comfortable moving forward together. Finding the right therapist can be an important part of the healing process, and I want to ensure you find the best fit to support your growth and success.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I have completed specialized training in perinatal and postpartum mood disorders and bring a wide range of clinical experience to my work. I strive to create a therapeutic environment that feels safe, supportive, and inclusive. My approach is empathetic and personable, helping clients feel comfortable as we work together toward healing and personal growth.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My ideal client is someone who is open to exploring their thoughts, willing to challenge old patterns, and ready to take an active role in their personal growth. Together, we’ll work toward creating meaningful change and building a more balanced, fulfilling life.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
