Let me start by saying thank you for being here today. Choosing to seek therapy can be a challenging decision but a courageous one, nonetheless. Hi, I’m Shakara, a passionate Marriage and Family Therapist Intern studying at Capella University with an expected graduation date of September 2024. As a dedicated learner and compassionate listener, I’m committed to supporting individuals, couples, and families on their journey toward healing and growth. I have vast experience working with children, adolescents, and adults across their lifespans for the last 12 years in various capacities.
I believe that strong relationships are the cornerstone of well-being. Whether you’re navigating communication challenges, coping with life transitions, or seeking premarital guidance, I’m here to walk alongside you. My approach is collaborative, empathetic, and rooted in evidence-based practices. YOU are the expert in your own life and experiences!
Why Work With Me? I work under the guidance of two experienced licensed therapists, Dr. Angela German and Dr. Cerise Lewis. Our sessions are confidential, nonjudgmental, and tailored to your unique needs and I consider emotional, relational, and cultural factors in our work together. Let’s embark on this transformative journey together.
