Hi, I’m Iya. 💛

  • I'm an EMDR-trained counseling intern and public health professional offering trauma-informed therapy for teens, young adults, and families.

  • My background includes over a decade in education, mentoring, and community wellness work. I bring a steady, relational presence for those navigating life transitions, recovery, and emotional overwhelm.

Who I Work With

  • I support individuals and families recovering from trauma, self-harm, substance use, and relational conflict.

  • Many of my clients are managing anxiety, school or work stress, identity shifts, or strained family dynamics.

  • They often come to therapy feeling stuck—and ready for change. Clients often say they leave sessions feeling more safe, hopeful, or understood, even after the first few sessions.

My Approach

  • Our work together will be collaborative, compassionate, and paced to fit your needs.

  • I draw from EMDR, DBT, RCT, and Narrative Therapy, integrating mind-body techniques with a focus on emotional regulation, self-understanding, and healing long-standing patterns.

My Background

  • I hold a Master of Science in Rural Community Health and, I am currently completing my clinical internship, with graduation expected in December 2025. I am supervised by Jessica Taylor, LPC.

  • My work is guided by cultural humility, integrity, and deep respect for your lived experience.

Let’s Work Together

  • If you're seeking clarity, healing, or a sense of connection in your life or relationships, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
