Meet the Team:
Kiya Black, LMSW is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Tennessee, Arkansas, and Mississippi, and a trauma-informed clinician practicing within a liberation-based framework. Drawing from an eclectic range of modalities—including Motivational Interviewing (MI), Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)—I work with diverse populations, including LGBTQIA+ individuals, people living with HIV/AIDS, unhoused individuals, youth, and those navigating co-occurring disorders or relationship challenges related to trauma, communication, or boundaries. I am passionate about supporting clients in accessing the healing needed to live authentically and fully, and my approach is rooted in the belief that each person holds the wisdom and strength to guide their own healing. I currently offer both in-person and telehealth individual therapy sessions.
