At Cultivate Counseling Services we believe in creating space for conversations that bring healing, from one on one conversations to collective community conversations on relevant cultural topics. We offer counseling sessions and groups for individuals, couples, families, and also provide training programs for businesses, schools, and churches.
Therapist:

Therapeutic Approach:
Areas of Focus:
“I practice a relational psychodynamic approach to therapy, which centers on the relational encounter between the client and therapist to understand current patterns, uncover the impacts of trauma, create space for grief and work to create new more desirable ways of relating. To understand your current patterns and impacts of loss, we explore your past, current relationships, losses and your thoughts and desires as trust builds. The role of therapist is not one of authority and answers, but one that journeys with you to change undesirable patterns, find healing from past hurts, and provide space to process the difficulties of life and relationships.” – Kali
