Niyabinghi Thomas, LCSW

Psychotherapist
PA
Hi there, I'm Niyabinghi! My name is Niyabinghi Thomas, but you can call me Niya. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Louisville. I have worked with individuals, families, and couples for over 8 years, both online, in the community, and in private practice. I typically use modalities such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Acceptance therapy, skills training, grief counseling, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing. My approach My therapy approach is warm and interactive. I believe in creating space for open and honest dialogue without judgment, moving at the client’s pace. I respect that not everyone is ready for change, and it is not my job to push it. My focus I have worked with clients facing a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse (childhood or current), depression, anxiety, PTSD, mood disorders, career challenges, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, anger, attachment issues, and ADHD. My communication style I provide a respectful, open, and compassionate space for self-exploration. Working with me feels safe and expansive. I am nonjudgmental and create an environment that is validating and inviting. My journey to mental healthcare I became a therapist after healing from my own childhood trauma. Through my personal healing, I found a passion for helping others. My driving force is to be the person I needed when I was a kid. My goals for you I work with clients to create goals that are achievable and necessary for growth and healing—goals that clients want and are willing to work toward. My first session with you During our first session, we will review your issues and symptoms, discuss goal setting, therapy frequency, and explore the modalities that will best support your healing journey.
