Rashida Whitley

Life can feel overwhelming, especially when past experiences, anxiety, or self-doubt make it hard to move forward. As a warm and grounding therapist (who isn’t afraid to add a little humor when it helps), I create a space where you don’t have to have everything figured out. You just need to show up as you are. I help adults, teens, couples, BIPOC clients, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and those navigating spiritual or religious trauma reconnect with themselves, find clarity, and build healthier patterns.

I draw from CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to help you develop tools you can use in everyday life. Together, we’ll explore emotions, patterns, and beliefs while also learning strategies to manage symptoms, improve communication, strengthen relationships, and build resilience.

My work is trauma-informed, culturally affirming, and LGBTQIA+ inclusive. I also support clients navigating religious trauma, deconstruction, or spiritual transitions with sensitivity and respect for your lived experiences.

You can expect a therapeutic space where we keep things real. Some days we go deep; other days, we take small practical steps. And sometimes, a touch of humor helps release tension and makes the work feel a little lighter. My goal is always to help you feel safe, empowered, and grounded enough to explore the parts of your story that need attention, healing, or re-writing
