Nakia Anderson

I am a clinical mental health counselor and psychotherapist with 30 years of experience in mental health, offering trauma therapy for adults. Many people who seek this work are outwardly functioning while feeling internally strained by trauma, chronic stress, or unresolved life experiences. Whether they are trades workers, caregivers, professionals, or creatives, you don't need to fit a particular background or have the "right" words for what you're carrying. Therapy here is not rushed, but it is structured rather than open-ended, while still leaving room for warmth and empathy along the way.

Drawing from Internal Family Systems, Prolonged Exposure, and Compassion-Focused Therapy, the work is integrative, trauma-informed, and multicultural. Each session follows a clear structure, keeping the work purposeful rather than meandering. Areas of focus include PTSD, complex PTSD, acute stress disorder, adjustment disorders, and racial trauma.

As a woman of color and an ally to the LGBTQIA2 community and sex workers, I provide an affirming, non-judgmental space that balances compassion with thoughtful challenge.

I may be a good fit if you are interested in reflective, depth-oriented work. All sessions and consultations are virtual. Fees reflect the depth of training, experience, and care I bring.
