Makiya Badada, MSW

Are you a woman navigating stress and major life transitions or a college student searching for support? I work with young adults and women experiencing grief, stress, depression, and anxiety. I offer a therapy called Brainspotting, which is known for deeper processing and healing for clients experiencing life stressors, anxiety, or trauma. As your therapist, I aim to nurture an environment where you feel heard, validated, and free to express your true self. Together, we'll focus on self-compassion, acceptance, and the practical steps needed to attain your goals, all while improving your overall quality of life.

To offer you the best support, I utilize holistic therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Talk Therapy. Recognizing that each person's journey is as unique as they are, I customize my approach to align with your needs and circumstances.
