Dr. Kira Graves

Real support. Real strategy. Real space to grow. If you’re feeling stuck, anxious, emotionally drained, or just not like yourself lately, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. I’m Dr. Kira Graves, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience helping individuals, couples, and professionals navigate life’s most personal and complex challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, ADHD, and major life transitions. Whether you're the “strong one” who rarely lets your guard down, a high achiever battling burnout or imposter syndrome, or someone simply trying to reconnect with yourself, I’m here to support you. I’ve traveled to over 55 countries studying how people across cultures cultivate happiness, resilience, and emotional wellness. That global insight shapes my therapeutic approach, which blends deep empathy with practical tools to help you feel better, think clearer, and live more intentionally. I earned my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from Howard University, and my PhD in Psychology from The Chicago School. In addition to clinical work, I provide coaching to professionals across industries - from Fortune 500 companies to the creative arts, offering guidance in leadership, purpose, and personal growth. My style is warm, collaborative, and client-centered. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel truly seen, not judged, and where real change feels possible. I integrate positive psychology, CBT, and solution-focused strategies to meet you exactly where you are. I also understand how life experiences, cultural identity, and expectations can shape the way we carry stress and I offer a space where all of that is welcomed and respected. You deserve a space that’s yours, where you can exhale, feel heard, and start building the life you want. I’d be honored to walk that journey with you.
