Feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck? Unresolved trauma can show up in many ways — from anxiety and low self-esteem to relationship struggles and chronic stress. I offer trauma-informed, culturally responsive care and specialize in EMDR, a therapy approach that goes beyond traditional talk therapy to help you truly resolve your problems and move forward with your life. Alongside EMDR, I draw from a range of evidence-based approaches. Whether you're healing from trauma, burnout, grief or facing other life challenges, I will support you in taking meaningful steps toward positive and lasting change.
I have a MSW and 15 + years of experience providing therapy to people who are struggling with a wide variety of concerns: anxiety, depression, stress, grief/loss, low self-esteem, relationship problems, difficult family dynamics, sexual violence, trauma/PTSD etc. I specialize in EMDR therapy and working with clients from diverse backgrounds (Black/POC).
I am dedicated to providing a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your experiences, deepen self-awareness, and develop greater self-acceptance. My goal is to help you uncover and heal the root causes of your distress—so you can move forward with your life. Please reach out to schedule a FREE 15-minute consultation.
