The essence of healing first starts with acknowledging that there is something that needs to be worked on. I commend you for taking the necessary steps to start on this journey.

I am accepting and realize that everyone has a life story and I am here to navigate that with you in the best way possible.

I am currently a student for my Masters of Social Work. I went into my master program after receiving a Bachelors of Science in Psychology. I have always had a passion to work with people of all ages since I was a child. At the age of 17 years old I started my college journey towards achieving my goal. I am still striving to master that journey till this day. It is a passion to help others. I believe if we can help one person at a time find their peace, then we can continue one after another until one day we can all find peace and happiness. Happiness is key in life. We all struggle, but in that struggle we can come out on top. In my down time, I enjoy spending time with my son. My son and I loves sports, art, music, anything to do with the water, gaming, amusement parks, and much more.

Hey yall. I am Ciera and I love all things mental health. It is truly a blessing to do what I love everyday however I am more than a therapist. I am a woman of substance who has overcome a lot of trial and tribulations and made the choice to own my story and I help others do the same.  I am a lover of sneakers, makeup, and trying new recipes. As a mom of two I understand what it is like to try to understand how to balance, but I also know that it is important to prioritize me everyday so that everyone else around me always gets my best.
