Brietta Looney
LCSW
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and the founder of a virtual therapeutic practice rooted in curiosity, care, and connection. I entered this field over ten years ago driven by a genuine desire to better understand myself and others, and to create spaces where people feel safe enough to do the same.
I’ve always been drawn to the ways our experiences—especially the ones we carry quietly—shape how we think, feel, and move through the world. My work is centered on supporting clients in exploring those layers with compassion and without judgment.
As a Black woman, I also understand that seeking support is not always simple. Many women of color have been expected to be strong, self-sufficient, and resilient, often while carrying unspoken stress and responsibility. I aim to offer a space where you don’t have to hold everything together or translate your lived experience...you can simply arrive as you are.

Jennifer Nicole Brown
LCSW
Jennifer specializes in supporting high-performing women who appear to have it all together while internally carrying stress, emotional overwhelm, perfectionism, and the weight of constantly pouring into others. Her work helps women move beyond survival mode to better understand the patterns, nervous system responses, and emotional wounds shaping their lives.
Integrating Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic practices, breathwork, polyvagal-informed care, and sound healing, Jennifer approaches therapy through both the mind and body. She believes healing is not only about insight, but about creating safety within the body so women can process emotions without becoming overwhelmed by them. Through this work, clients learn to respond with intention instead of reacting from stress, reconnect with themselves, and create lives rooted in balance, authenticity, and self-trust.

LCSW
POPULATION SERVED: Complex trauma, PTSD, disordered eating, and identity-level healing

As Kula's Clinical Director and an EMDR therapist in Georgia, Mikayla brings advanced training in IFS-informed EMDR, Polyvagal Theory, and therapeutic yoga. She works with teens (15+) and adults navigating complex trauma, disordered eating therapy, identity development, sexuality, and grief — offering some of the deepest and most structured clinical work in the practice.
She offers in-person therapy in Decatur, GA, and virtual therapy in Georgia for clients across the state.

My work blends traditional mental health approaches with integrative, body-centered practices like breathwork, restorative yoga, and crystal sound bowl healing.

I honor both science and embodiment practices, inviting others to ground, release, and reconnect to their values and vitality. I believe healing is not only possible, it’s holistic, and it happens best when we are seen, supported, and empowered.
In addition to individual therapy, I facilitate therapeutic groups centered on identity exploration, values clarification, and healing for Black women. I also offer wellness workshops that invite you to experience healing through sound, movement, breath, and community connection.
I would be honored to support you in creating the life your soul is longing for.

POPULATION SERVED: Women, Women's issues, anxiety, self-esteem, boundaries, life transitions, trauma
I know what it’s like to question yourself at every turn, making growth difficult and scary. To feel alone in your struggle and doubt that it could ever change. I didn’t feel like I was enough and this showed up in all aspects of my life.
After years of doing my own work through therapy, clinical training, doing all the self-help things, leaving toxic relationships, and reconnecting with myself through my own soul care practices, I finally started to shift my perspective.
This is why I am so passionate about helping guide and support women to reconstruct their beliefs about themself and develop acceptance from within.
I’ve spent years trying to figure it out. As a holistically trained, trauma-informed, licensed therapist who’s been through some shit, I can tell you that it is possible and you don’t have to do it alone. I can help.
I enjoy working with women to manage and overcome feelings of low self esteem, self-doubt, imposter syndrome, anxiety and trauma, and to claim their life back after a significant change like a break up. I'm dedicated to help self-doubting women work through the shit that keeps them stuck using mind, body, and soul approaches so they can nurture their inner worth.

Annelle Taylor
WHNP, ANP
States Served : New York as an NP and all 50 states as an Entrepreneur
POPULATION SERVED: All people with any history of a uterus and Adults + Folx working in healthcare affected by burnout, stress, and systemic oppression.
ANNELLE TAYLOR (MSN, NP-C, WHNP-BC) (She/her) is originally from Mississippi and currently lives in NYC. She completed the MSN program in Women’s Health and Adult Primary Care at the Yale School of Nursing in 2010. She works as an NP at the Bronx Health Collective at Montefiore Medical Center (BHC) where she’s been joyfully working with her phenomenal co-workers and the good folks of the South Bronx for over a decade.
A cancer diagnosis in 2018 led Annelle to realize that in order to truly heal, she would need to engage in methods and actions to dissolve and resolve her own internalized paradigms—namely white supremacy—via the language and actions of trauma-informed collective liberation based in anti-racism ideology. She believes that we are not well until we are all well and we cannot heal or ever fully dismantle our own internal systems of oppression and those that divide us systemically until we name the way we are implicit in said systems of oppression and start really listening to each other in brave spaces.
The Healing Circle for Healthcare Workers was imagined in conversations (and lots of listening) with her co-collaborators, the amazing and magnificent Nurse Sara Voltaire, Mr. Robert Jackson, and Dr. Ricky Qadeer, who helped originate this space and idea. The deep dive program she’s currently creating called Medicine Womxn was alchemized from the deep medicinal teachings and understandings she’s been honored to receive since childhood and will be a program for anyone who identifies as Womxn working in healthcare to heal, resolve, and release burnout.
