About Kiana
She trained in psychology and clinical mental health counseling at local universities in South Carolina and has five years of professional experience in both private practice and public agencies. Kiana uses everyday language in sessions and focuses on what a person needs right now rather than long technical explanations.
Her work blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients notice patterns, try small changes, and build on what works. She also draws on Client-Centered and Mindfulness approaches to keep the pace guided by the client's experience and values.
In a typical session she listens first, then helps set a practical goal or experiment to try between visits. Sessions often focus on coping skills, shifting unhelpful thinking, and building routines for better sleep, mood, or relationships. Progress is tracked with simple steps so clients can see change.
People looking to explore stress, mood concerns, addictions, or relationship tensions will find straightforward support aimed at real-life changes. Kiana encourages people to start with a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that fits their week.
How Kiana’s Approaches Work Online
Kiana commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in her work. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors to shift mood and anxiety. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, concrete steps and builds on what a person already does well to create change.Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about your goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn’t helped before. From there she and the client decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as needed so it fits the client’s needs and preferences.
Confirm the current session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow for check-ins during breaks. It can also let people try approaches like CBT exercises or solution-focused tasks between meetings to keep progress moving.
