Appreciations

“Kia-Fiara has brought a sense of authenticity in her approach to therapy. The stereotype that therapists have of being stoic when working with their clients does not apply to Kia. Kia is able to bring her personality into our sessions which creates a safe and open space for me to relax and be vulnerable in. Due to this, as well as her different methods of conflict-resolution and tactics to center myself in high-stress situations, my experience working with her has changed my perception of therapy, mental health, and most importantly self-love.” -Anonymous client-

“My experience with Kia over these past two years has been so valuable as I've navigated personal life transitions into marriage and fatherhood, and professional changes into new career spaces. She has a special combination of qualities that make our sessions purposeful and enable me to be more deeply reflective. 

Kia is transparent and values-explicit in her practice, clearly in the name "Revolutionary Services." This values-alignment was important to me from the beginning and remains a vital foundation in trust-building and understanding. She has an effortless intellect, wit, humor, along with depth, empathy, and emotional intelligence that creates a space that can be both safe and enjoyable.” -Anonymous client-

“Kia and Revolutionary Services has helped me redefine authenticity in professionalism, recognize cultural wealth in mental health, and re-center my own humanity in dehumanizing systems.”-Anonymous client-

Chapter Two Appreciations

“We were at all stages of the divorce process and the storytelling afforded me the opportunity to understand what to expect and how to process what was happening to me due to the stories I heard. It gave me a safe space to be heard, and sometimes that's just what we need. To vent and be heard and seen in a judgement free forum”. -Group Member-

“The most challenging was looking deep within self. Identifying one's role that led to where we are now. Thinking had I not allowed it to go on so long, I would not be where I am now. Holding myself accountable for what I ALLOWED to happen and not happen”. -Group Member-

“The guest speakers were good because they offered professional perspectives and provided tools for us to use as we go through these difficult times. It was nice to see there is hope and strength on the other side of this divorce journey and that there is clearly an ongoing battle even after divorce, but we must continue to learn and heal ourselves for our children”.-Group Member-
