Getting to know Kaleesa Turnage

My expertise includes anxiety, depression, young parent issues, child-raising, attention-deficit disorders, and more. I am dedicated to empowering my clients by providing them with the tools, training, and knowledge necessary to perform at their best every day. I employ a variety of performance skills, ranging from mindset and motivation to improving focus and concentration, to help my clients succeed. With experience working with diverse populations, I recognize that each individual's journey is unique. Understanding that what works for one person may not be effective for another, I am committed to guiding my clients through the process of enhancing their emotional and mental well-being, no matter where they are in life. By utilizing evidence-based strategies, I remain devoted to helping my clients achieve their fullest potential. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Delaware State University, which has equipped me with a strong foundation to support my clients effectively. My approach is client-centered, using CBT, DBT, ACT, or whatever is most appropriate and beneficial for the client. I work with a variety of clients, including those experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, eating disorders, body image issues, adolescents, parents, couples, grief, teen issues, personality disorders, sexual, physical, and emotional trauma, and OCD. I prefer to be open and honest. Clients should expect to feel safe as they speak with me. I provide support and patience, understanding that it may be difficult to talk about certain things. I've always had a passion for helping others, and throughout my own journey, I've discovered that everything happens for a reason. Although we may feel stuck at times, it takes hard work and support to get through tough times. My passion now is to help others get through their tough times. My approach is strictly client-based. I support my clients in meeting the goals they have set for themselves.
