“Imani really helped me understand myself, she knows me through and through. I am really glad to have found her! She doesn’t tell me what everyone else does she tells me the hard truth and that’s exactly what I needed and still need! I love her dearly best therapist I’ve encountered. She made therapy feel like a calm place for me to just come and vent and get the support I was missing.”

Getting to know Imani Williams

Do you feel like you are being held back because of a depressed mood, anxious feelings, or past trauma? Are you uncomfortable with being vulnerable and trusting others? Are you struggling with shame or guilt? Imagine having meaningful relationships, feeling confident, and having more control over your life. What would that look like? I am glad you found my page and would love to connect with you. I am not here to judge you! My job is to create a safe, non-judgmental space to guide and support you as you work on creating the path you want to take. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Florida State University, which has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to support you effectively on your journey.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Clients can expect to feel heard, understood, and empowered as well as walk away with skills to manage negative emotions and impulses. I enjoy helping my clients solve their problems by educating them on methods or skills that will help to stop worry, calm anxiety, improve mood, and end patterns of negative thinking.

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.

She is more than just Authentic and solution oriented. She is incredibly empowering, warm, open minded, easy to talk to, funny, understanding, and just wonderful. I thought I would have trouble finding my first ever therapist but no.
Absolutely love my sessions with Imani. She feels as though I'm speaking with a friend and can be myself. I find myself writing down mindful/thought provoking things she says. Her perspective really has helped me tremendously. I always look forward to speaking with her, she's wonderful!
Not neurodivergent friendly. Will question your established diagnosis within not even 30 minutes. Backwards mindset when it comes to austism and ADHD

Imani is probably the best friend I never knew I needed. She listens, speaks clearly, and gets on your level. Even though it's therapy it doesn't feel like it at all I feel comfortable and can be myself. In any other therapy I had in the past I felt I had to hide my true self because the therapist didn't fully understand me. NOT HERE, this is a safe space and you will make the progress you need with Imani and I will scream to the top of my lungs that I vouch for her.

I’ve already described it to multiple friends & I’ve told them all that Ms. Imani is very kind & personable. Her demeanor made it easy to feel like I was in a safe space to open up, which felt especially phenomenal considering that it was my very first time meeting her.

Imani has been such an amazing light to my life, she has helped me in so many ways in such a short time I am truly grateful for her. She is so inviting, funny and all around amazing to work with. She is very direct and honest, something I really needed in a therapist. I respect her for her professionalism, unique plan of action tasks and her willingness to pour into the client. I would highly recommend her, she is the best :) 20 out of 10!!!!!
