Najiya ShanaaClinical Social Work/Therapist, LICSW, LCSW-C

About

I have two decades of experience working with people affected by trauma, childhood abuse, PTSD, loss and grief, LGBTQ+ issues, substance abuse, depression, anxiety and other mood disorders. I enjoy working with adults of all ages who are in life transitions or who may feel stuck as they try to move forward professionally or in their personal relationships. My clients are a rich mix of all races, cultures, ages, genders/sexual identities and religions. I am personally aware of the multicultural social and relational issues that many face. In the end, what we all want is to find happiness in our lives and fulfill our potential. Using a blend of psychodynamic approaches, we will address issues that keep you stuck in unhealthy patterns, behaviors or relationships. With more understanding of yourself, your defenses, your family and other significant relationships, you can move forward and shape the future that you want.
