Quanisha Whittfield

“You don’t have to keep performing to belong. Come home, mind, body, spirit.”

Quanisha Whittfield is an advanced doctoral practicum student and Licensed Psychological Associate supervised by Dr. Rashida Davis. Her clinical specialty centers on helping Black women navigate gendered racial stress, the specific weight of showing up authentically in spaces, relationships, and systems that were not built with them in mind. She works with clients on identity development, anxiety, burnout, self-worth, boundary-setting, and life transitions, always through a lens that honors both the individual and the collective experience behind it.

Quanisha's approach blends traditional talk therapy with mindfulness, values-based living, and somatic practices, because she believes healing is not only a mental conversation but a physical one too. She helps clients reconnect with the version of themselves that exists underneath the performing, the shrinking, and the constant managing of other people's perceptions, guiding them toward a life that actually feels like their own.

Quanisha's work is grounded in the belief that healing is not only personal but collective. She honors each client's lived experience and supports them in reconnecting with themselves through authenticity, self-compassion, and intentional action.
