Professional Licensed Counselor

Hi there! My name is Kibra Dessa, I’m a professional licensed counselor with experience supporting individuals navigating major life transitions, anxiety, and depression. I have experience working with children, teens, and adults in both in-person and virtual settings. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where you’ll feel welcomed to share your experiences in therapy.

I provide therapy services at our Columbia, MD clinic.

I like to blend evidence based techniques with a client centered, collaborative style. I believe my clients are the experts of their own lives and I’m here to walk alongside you every step of the way. Together we can build on your strengths, and find practical ways to navigate life’s challenges.

I’m here to walk alongside you in your healing journey and create a space where you can feel truly seen and heard. My hope is that through our work together, you’ll feel more empowered, resilient, and confident in moving toward the life you want.
