Meet Akosua,
licensed marriage and family therapist | Maternal health advocate | healthy couple crusader
As a compassionate and heart-centered therapist, I'm committed to accompanying my clients on a journey towards living a more authentic and fulfilling life. As a first-generation Caribbean- African American, I understand the impact of unique cultural perspectives can have on birthing individuals and couples. I am a strong advocate for early detection and a collaborative approach with medical providers to be a part of your birthing team.
I aim to offer a safe and genuine environment where birthing individuals and couples can explore and process their experiences. I specialize in creating a safe and nurturing space for birthing individuals and their partners to explore their emotions, process their experiences, and develop coping strategies to navigate the challenges they may face during pregnancy and after childbirth. Together, we cultivate resilience and foster inner strength to navigate life's ups and downs. I am mindful of the disparities in choices among individuals and believe in the potential for growth and transformation for all.
