She/her
Clinical Manager – Counseling
I’m Aliyah, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Ohio, and I proudly work with the Rise Counseling Group. Our goal is to alleviate anxiety and depression among African American women and other Women of Color. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Kent State University and two Masters of Education Degrees from Cleveland State University in Adult Learning and Development and Clinical Mental Health.
Throughout my career, I have been committed to a holistic and client-centered approach to mental health, working with youth and young adults in various settings, including schools, outpatient clinics, and college campuses. At Rise Counseling Group, I am thrilled to focus on supporting marginalized communities, creating a therapeutic space where healing and empowerment are at the forefront.
In addition to my clinical work, I supervise and train counselors throughout Ohio, guiding them in their professional development and ensuring they provide the highest quality of care. My expertise includes addressing depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief, trauma, and self-esteem. As an adjunct faculty member at Cuyahoga Community College, I extend my passion for mental health to educating the next generation of counselors.
Giving back to the community is a vital part of my life. I actively volunteer, particularly through my sorority, where I engage in services that uplift our community, with a special focus on nurturing the mental health and self-esteem of Black women and teen girls.
In my downtime, I enjoy unwinding with family and friends, embracing the joy and strength they bring into my life.
I provide therapy online only until our Cleveland location is ready. I see clients Mondays from 3pm to 8pm, Tuesdays from 10am to 6pm, Wednesdays from 10am to 6pm, and Thursdays from 2pm to 7pm.
