A note from Lwenyi

My areas of specialty include anxiety, depression, trauma, interpersonal conflict, stress management and life transitions. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Systems Theory and Strengths Perspective Theory. In our work together, I will use my clinical acumen and critical thinking skills to empower you and help you problem-solve, learn coping skills and heal. As both a practitioner and client, I am passionate about all areas of mental health, including practice, policy and research. In my spare time, I enjoy working out, meditating, reading, writing poetry and listening to music.
