Nadia Baker, LCSW-QS
Psychotherapist
With over 20 years of experience supporting individuals and families, I provide compassionate, culturally responsive, and person-centered therapy tailored to each client’s unique journey. My approach is shaped by my professional experience, education, faith-based background, and personal understanding of the healing process. I am passionate about breaking the stigma surrounding mental health and creating a safe space where clients feel heard, supported, and empowered. My goal is not only to help you heal, but to help you build resilience, discover your strengths, and create meaningful, lasting change.
Wanda Smalls, MSW
Registered Clinical Social Work Intern
With experience in community mental health and advocacy, I provide compassionate, trauma-informed, and person-centered therapy designed to meet each client’s unique needs. I work with adults, adolescents, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship concerns, and life transitions. My approach integrates CBT, Solution-Focused, and Person-Centered therapies to create a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard and valued. My goal is to help you recognize your strengths, develop practical tools, and move toward greater healing, resilience, balance, and lasting change.
Taylor Jakson
Intake Coordinator
I’m often the first point of contact when you begin your journey with Visions of Hope. My goal is to make starting therapy feel welcoming, simple, and stress-free by assisting with scheduling, paperwork, insurance, and the intake process. I understand that taking the first step can sometimes feel overwhelming, so I approach every interaction with patience, compassion, and respect. My goal is to provide a smooth and supportive experience so you can focus on what matters most—your healing and well-being.
