More about Talyah

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCPC

I enjoy helping people figure out what they want and find more effective ways to get what they deserve out of life—especially when it comes to relationships. Whether you're hoping to find one, unsure about staying in one, or need support navigating the one you’re in, I’m here to help. Relationships can be hard—we don’t get a class in school, and most of us didn’t have perfect models growing up. I help people recognize old patterns, apply what they learn, and move forward. I’m a good listener and ask the right questions to help you work through what’s holding you back.
