My journey to becoming a therapist is rooted in personal experience. As a child, I faced significant losses. Before I graduated high school, I had already sat on the front row of two funerals. I had to adjust to major life changes at a young age, and I remember carrying an overwhelming sadness and a deep sense of shame that didn’t belong to me.
In my early 30s, I left corporate America to pursue a degree in counseling. I started what was then a solo private practice, Kenyatta Black Counseling. Over time, as I grew personally and professionally, I became a supervisor. During the height of the pandemic, one of my LPC Associates, Tameka Turner, continued to work with me after becoming fully licensed, and that’s how KBC as a group practice was born.
Today, we are a trauma-informed, heart-centered practice committed to walking with you through healing and growth, because I know, firsthand, what it means to navigate pain and come out on the other side.
