A note from Shakirah
I’m a licensed therapist with over 13 years of experience, and my passion is helping people reconnect with themselves in ways that feel authentic and purposeful. I believe many of us get caught up in what we “should” be doing and lose touch with who we truly are. In our work together, I create a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your inner world, release old patterns, and realign with what matters most to you. My approach blends practical tools with deep reflection, so you can find clarity, cultivate peace, and move forward with a stronger sense of self and direction.
