Meet Asa

Asa is a seasoned professional with a diverse skill set. She began her career as a licensed mental health professional, driven by a passion for helping individuals achieve their best selves. Over the years, Asa has excelled as a clinical supervisor, executive, and HR professional, developing systems to support “impaired professionals” struggling to maintain functionality amidst life’s stressors.

With over eleven years of experience in mental health and substance abuse, Asa’s clinical expertise includes addiction, addictive behaviors, and complex relationships, whether as couples or organizations. She is often called upon as a change agent during periods of crisis, such as infidelity, substance relapse, mental health emergencies, grief, and other significant life challenges.

Asa has undergone extensive training in various therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Seeking Safety, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and the 12-step program, among others. Her ability to coach clients through these processes showcases her comprehensive approach to mental health and personal development.

Asa’s style is warm, straightforward, and radically genuine. She was drawn to Prochaska and DiClemente’s Motivational Interviewing, as well as other therapeutic approaches like CBT, Seeking Safety, TF-CBT, and the 12-step program. These methodologies resonate with many individuals who are ready for change, and Asa’s unique perspective allows her to connect compassionately with those seeking transformation.

Hailing from the small South American country of Guyana, Asa brings an openness, friendly island-adjacent vibe, and inclusivity to her practice. She is a top resource for multiple corporations but is most passionate about working one-on-one with individuals, especially in short-term interventions and supporting those aspiring to be change agents.

In addition to her work as a personal coach and change agent, Asa has also excelled as an HR professional, providing services in recruitment, career coaching, and clinical supervision.
