Hello, my name is Keyee (Pronounced Kay-e) and my purpose in life is to serve! I exemplify this in each session. I have experience working with children, couples, individuals (although I prefer to work with women!), and families experiencing grief, trauma, anxiety, depression and more. I prefer CBT, Christian counseling and Solution focused brief therapy. I started my journey or life (my name means Life) in Newark, NJ where I was born and raised in a multi-cultural family with roots in Liberia and Guyana. My immediate family consisted of my dad, my late mom and older brother, four younger sisters and one younger brother. I love and enjoy my family and they play a major role in who I am. I began my professional career at Coppin State University in Baltimore, MD where I earned my BA in Sociology in 2009. I initially wanted to become a nurse, but after several failed attempts I began to understand that my calling lied elsewhere. I spent several years working in the social services field as resident aides and case managers, helping people in long term care facilities and shelters. During that time, I made the choice to pursue my MA in Counseling Psychology at Felician University in Lodi, NJ where I graduated in 2015. I continued my career in social services for a while longer before finally attempting to obtain my counseling license in 2019. I struggled with fear as I weighed the choice of staying at my then place of employment and making the leap to full time counseling, so I did both for a few years. However, through faith I made the leap to start Healing Hands Counseling & Coaching in 2022 and full time pursue my calling in 2023.
With that said, I have several years in the helping field, and three plus years as a therapist. My aim is to provide top notch, person centered, quality care. I am more than a listening ear; I am support while on your journey of healing. I see your potential and healing already!
