Meet The Founder

 

     My name is Alayjia, and I am a Southern California native. Growing up, I was surrounded by dysfunction, mental turmoil, trauma, and poverty. These experiences led to mental health struggles from an early age. Through years of pursuing healing through my Christian faith and mental health resources, I learned a lot and wanted to share all of my insights with others who were struggling. Most of all, I wanted to create safe and supportive spaces for people to feel comfortable enough to harness the vulnerability that is necessary for healing. ​

     I am currently on my journey to becoming a therapist, pursuing graduate studies. In the meantime, I serve patients in addiction recovery by facilitating supportive counseling groups where I provide education on psychology and wellness and engage in discussions about topics designed to encourage support among group members and healthy conversations about healing and self-care. I am highly passionate about the work that I do and am honored to be a part of the life changing journey that individuals go through in recovery from addiction. I created Seeds of Genesis to serve as a healing space for individuals facing a variety of challenges that impact their ability to achieve the bright future that God has for them while providing education and support in achieving their personal goals.
