Evidence-Based Therapy. Real-Life Healing.

I’m Kiniko Willingham, a Black Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW #93433) and Air Force veteran dedicated to helping individuals reclaim their rise into their power.

Please paste the paragraph you want edited, and tell me if you want any specific changes (tone, length, reading level, focus, or audience).

I provide trauma-informed therapy for adolescents and adults across California through secure telehealth services. My work is rooted in evidence-based practices and a deep respect for the diverse experiences, identities, and realities each person brings into therapy.

I believe that effective therapy requires more than clinical knowledge it requires understanding, cultural awareness, and the ability to hold space without judgment. I strive to create an environment where you feel seen, heard, and supported in a way that honors your lived experience.

Using approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), I support individuals navigating trauma, emotional challenges, and life transitions. Together, we work to build insight, strengthen emotional regulation, and create meaningful, lasting change.

As a clinician, veteran, and Black woman, I understand the importance of having a therapist who respects your perspective while helping you move forward with clarity and confidence.
