About Me

Licensed Counselor | Mindful Maven Behind AWA Counseling | Advocate for Black Women’s Healing

Hi, I’m Adara—a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes therapy doesn’t have to feel like a chore. I help women navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, and the journey of self-discovery feel seen, supported, and empowered—without the jargon and judgment – just real talk and real healing.

I blend professional know-how with real-life understanding to create a space where you can breathe, reflect, and grow. Think of our sessions like deep conversations with a purpose—backed by science, led by compassion, and the occasional social media trend or meme-worthy moment to keep it all grounded in laughter.

When I’m not in session, you’ll find me curating the perfect playlist, perfecting my chocolate chip cookie recipe, or taking a Zumba class.

Let’s rewrite your story together—one real, honest, healing conversation at a time.

Therapy Style: Chill, intentional, and deeply validating
Superpower: Translating “I’m fine” into what’s really going on
Vibe Check: Warm, real, and a little bit Beyoncé energy
