Great to meet you!

Qiana believes in helping others become their best selves and recognizing the strengths they already possess to change their situations. Qiana believes that each person is inherently doing the best they can in each moment, something she learned in her training of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). This a framework that informs much of her practice. Qiana also readily uses Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) to help others find solutions.
