Vernicia John-Lewis, MS
If you are facing life stressors such as feeling stuck, lost, or overwhelmed by our present world and you have landed here, stop for a moment, and breathe. Be proud of yourself for how courageous you already are for taking this huge step in your healing process. Seeking therapy can be a very intimate and vulnerable process. I recognize that finding a therapist can be scary and challenging. I want you to know that I am here to help you look at life through different lenses. My mission as your therapist is to provide you with space that is empathetic, judgment-free, and safe. It is my job to create an environment where you feel you can let your guard down, find your voice, and explore your true sense of identity.
