“Today I had my first session with Kianna and it was everything I didn’t even know I needed. She was warm, present, and deeply understanding. One of those rare people who just get it without you having to explain too much. I felt seen, heard, and safe. It honestly felt like I could exhale for the first time in a long time. She asked thoughtful questions, held space with compassion, and reflected things back to me in a way that made me feel validated and empowered. It’s exactly what you’d hope for in a therapist. I’m genuinely looking forward to seeing her again and continuing this journey toward healing.

“It has been just a few visits and I already feel much lighter seeing Kianna weekly. I look forward to speaking with her to discuss my goals and challenges in such a safe space that allows me to be completely vulnerable. I cherish the support she has given me and I am so excited to continue therapy visits with Kianna. It took me a while for me to find the courage to get help but I’m so glad that I took that step. It has already improved my life so much. Thank you immensely! ”

Hello, my name is Kianna, and I have been working in the mental health field for more than 20 years. I attended Colgate University, where I earned my Bachelor's degree studying Sociology and Biology. This experience sparked my passion for mental health and a deep curiosity about why people do the things we do. I went on to earn my Master's in Social Work, specializing in Mental Health, from Syracuse University School of Social Work. Since then, I have worked with diverse populations of all ages and have found that I especially enjoy supporting people from disadvantaged backgrounds, people of color, women, Autists, and individuals living with anxiety and trauma of all kinds.

Seems like a very experienced woman that would take all the knowledge and time she's got to help those who need it. She's supportive and you can talk with her knowing that whenever or wherever you do it, you can think of it as a safe place, where judgement's out of the table.

I highly recommend Kianna. You can tell she values your time and is never late for your session. She listens intently while you speak and provides valuable feedback to help solve any issue you may have. Really happy with our sessions and looking forward to working with her.

The main thing that I can say about Kianna is that’s she’s expert at providing sound, reliable feedback as a demonstration of her ability to really hear what her client is saying as a commitment to their mental health and well-being. I’ve had a number of counselors. By far, she is the best, most professional counselor yet!

She is very empathetic and has great suggestions on how to look at a problem from a different perspective. She’s very concise in her approach and gets straight to the root of the problem. I’d definitely recommend her.

Miss Cole is very respectful and is a professional at her job she listens and even asks questions that keeps you thinking even after the session. This was the first time of me going to therapy and was nervous but she eased my worries and does her job very well.
