Introduction

Nakia J. Anderson Licensed Professional Counselor & Psychotherapist With 30 years of experience, Nakia offers trauma therapy for adults who are outwardly functioning yet carrying unresolved experiences, chronic stress, or internal conflict. Drawing from IFS, Prolonged Exposure, Compassion-Focused Therapy, and CBT, her work is unhurried and oriented toward sustainable change — not quick symptom relief. She specializes in PTSD, complex PTSD, racial trauma, and adjustment disorders, and frequently works with high-achieving professionals, creatives, and caregivers. As a woman of color and ally to the LGBTQIA2 community and sex workers, she provides an affirming, non-judgmental space. _____ Koren Knott M.S., IAADC, SAP, SAE Delaware Residents Only You don't have to be in crisis to know something isn't working. Koren works with adults who feel emotionally exhausted or stuck — managing responsibilities on the outside while feeling disconnected or anxious within. Her work is structured and trauma-informed, focused on emotional regulation, coping skills, and practical support. With over a decade of experience in outpatient and community settings, she supports individuals navigating anxiety, substance use, life transitions, and emotional distress. Koren offers a steady, respectful space where you don't have to hold everything together.
