Zakiya Becca, MS

Isn’t it wonderful to explore who we truly are, how we navigate life, and the reasons behind our actions? We’ve all heard those well-meaning yet sometimes unhelpful phrases like, “what’s wrong with you?” or “toughen up.” But what about the question, “what happened to you?“

I’m here to offer a welcoming space where every client can bask in the warmth of being seen, truly heard, and brimming with inspiration. My mission is to help you unravel the “why” behind your experiences, opening doors to fresh perspectives that nurture your well-being and the beautiful journey of healing. Let’s embark on this path together, where your uniqueness is celebrated and your healing is the destination.

Hi, I’m Zakiya Becca, a masters level mental health therapist. In my approach to therapy, I firmly believe it’s a collaborative journey, and I wholeheartedly embrace the opportunity to partner with my clients in addressing the challenges that hinder their pursuit of a fulfilling life.

As a member of the black community, particularly as a black woman of Caribbean heritage, I am acutely aware of the unmet needs within my community. Even more, I observe the detrimental impact of cultural misconceptions that often cast a shadow on the perception of therapy. This is something I’ve witnessed not only in those around me, but I once grappled with these misconceptions myself.

If you or someone you know within the black community could benefit from therapeutic support, I invite you to take action and reach out. Together, we can challenge these barriers and embark on a path towards holistic well-being. Don’t let misconceptions hold you back – let’s work together to create a brighter tomorrow.
