Meet the Team

I am Kierra Holiday (She/Her), a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and the founder and Chief Executive Officer of District Counseling, L.L.C. I received my Bachelor's degree from Florida A&M University and my Master's degree from Howard University School of Social Work. During my more than ten years working with families, individuals, children, and adolescents in the D.C. area, I have provided excellent service to my clients in various settings, including nonprofits, child welfare, foster care, criminal justice, school settings, and direct therapy. These experiences culminated with my decision to open District Counseling in October 2019.

My therapeutic approach is Cognitive Behavioral, Solution-Focused, and Person-Centered. It is my goal to help people develop a better understanding of the factors that contribute to their stress, worries, anxiety, and concerns. This improved understanding can lead to having/creating better relationships, creating/solving solutions to specific problems, improved decision making, and a significant reduction in feelings of distress.
