About me

You are deserving and you are important.

I am a Mental Health Therapist specializing in supporting women and families with young children. I have provided Infant Mental Health Therapy to families of birth to 7 year olds since 2014. While early parenthood is my specialization, I have supported clients of all walks of life. I've worked with clients from diverse backgrounds, and a range of life stressors from interpersonal relationships, emotional regulation and coping skill development, and more. I am genuinely dedicated to guiding individuals toward a healthier mental space.

My expertise spans various areas, including anxiety, depression, interpersonal relationships issues, family issues, adjustment issues, attachment and bonding, parenting challenges, postpartum depression and perinatal mood disorders, and more.

Creating a warm and secure space is at the core of my therapeutic style. I employ a strength-based treatment approach with respect, compassion, and sensitivity to address challenging issues.

My unwavering passion for assisting individuals from diverse backgrounds remains a driving force in my work, and I am steadfast in making a positive impact in the lives of those I have the privilege to serve.

I collaborate with you to meet you where you are.

I thank you for reviewing my profile and for considering me to meet your needs.

I am so happy that I was paired with Anicia, she has helped me through my toughest times and has taught me so many skills I still use to regulate my emotions and not feel so overwhelmed. Her ability to to understand the complexities of my issues through not just a mental health lens and anti-racist lens has granted me to ability to take my healing to a new level where I feel confident in her work and expertise. I would like to thank her, through our time together she has helped me through our conversations to really understand my own parenting. I truly feel so much better as a parent knowing I can talk to a therapist through my short-comings and work through my own needs to meet those of my child. Anicia has been help beyond words.

Anicia is thoughtful, insightful. and really easy to talk to. Working with her has helped me to feel more myself, and find my grounding voice. She offers a lot of different lens to view life through and so many solutions and quotes that stick with me throughout the week. I came to her in a very dark place and every session we have together I learn something new about how to change that for myself. She has been truly empowering and it's been like a breath of fresh air to hear her take my very unraveled thoughts and make a beautiful garment of sense.

She listens, understands and is very easy to open up to.

I have tried therapy so many times and have been unsuccessful. I know the therapist doesn’t solve problems for you, but Anicia works with me to find the right solution. She listens to me in an empathic way. She makes me feel like I can trust her. She is kind and friendly and supper accommodating since the beginning! I highly recommend her.

I’ve never had a therapist before so I was a little nervous going into it. Anicia made me feel safe and I really got to open up to her she also got me to see things in different perspectives. Honestly just a really good therapist I would recommend her to anyone

Anicia is AMAZING! She’s very personable and easy to talk to. She has helped me so much in a short amount of time. I love that she’s very professional and not afraid to inform her clients of area’s that are not her specialty. I would highly recommend Anicia as a wonderful therapist.
