Getting to know Zakia Brown

Hi there, I'm Zakia! My goal is to create a safe space for individuals can talk, process, and learn positive coping skills. My focus I work with individuals of all ages and stages that may be dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma and self esteem challenges. Together we can work together to process in a safe space, and learn healthy skills to support your personal goals toward growth. My approach I use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you identify and reshape unhelpful thoughts. My approach is practical and collaborative, giving you tools to feel more in control. I may also incorporate mindfulness or other techniques to support your unique goals and progress. My communication style I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient. My journey to mental healthcare I started therapy because I was fascinated by how people bounce back and wanted to help others discover their inner strength when things get tough. I truly believe that everyone has the potential to grow, heal, and make lasting changes. My goals for you Think of therapy as a team effort. We’ll work together to create goals that truly resonate with you—whether it’s strengthening your relationships, boosting your confidence, or exploring new opportunities. As you discover new perspectives, we’ll tweak your plan to keep it relevant and supportive as you journey toward your dreams. Our first session The first session is a great opportunity for us to get to know each other and chat about what you’re hoping to achieve through therapy.
