As a woman who wears many hats, I understand the emotional complexity and life transitions many women face. Many women I work with are used to being the strong one for everyone else while balancing careers, relationships, motherhood, and major life changes. Behind the scenes, they may be quietly managing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, or emotional overwhelm. Many women reach out saying, “I don’t feel like myself anymore,” describing worry, difficulty focusing, mood changes, intrusive thoughts, burnout, or exhaustion. Let’s get you back to you. Boundaries are a powerful tool for protecting your peace and creating balance.

Up at 1:00 AM with a racing mind, wondering why your brain only hits peak focus when the world is sleeping? As a provider living with combined ADHD myself, I know the exhausting tug-of-war between hyperfocus, burnout, and the anxiety of feeling perpetually behind. Living as a night owl with ADHD can feel incredibly isolating, especially when trying to force your brain into a standard 9-to-5 mold. If executive dysfunction has left you completely drained, you are not alone.

You may be a busy, high-achieving professional carrying a lot of responsibility. From the outside, things may look successful, but internally you may feel overwhelmed, anxious, burned out, distracted, or disconnected from yourself. Many people seek care not because they are in crisis, but because they want clarity, balance, and relief. My approach is thoughtful, structured, and evidence-based, focused on understanding what is happening beneath the surface and creating a practical plan to help you feel more grounded, focused, and emotionally steady.

FAQ - Black and African American Psychiatrists
As an African American, why might I wish to see a psychiatrist who is African American?
Psychiatrists are trained to diagnose and treat a broad range of mental health conditions using approaches such as therapy and medication management. For many Black and African American individuals, finding a psychiatrist who shares their racial background can be an important part of feeling understood and supported in care. This preference may reflect a desire for culturally-informed treatment or a deeper sense of connection with someone who better understands one’s unique challenges and lived experiences. While licensed psychiatrists of all backgrounds are equally qualified, Black psychiatrists may bring both personal and professional insight into issues such as racial trauma, identity, discrimination, and other culturally-specific factors that can shape a person’s mental health.

Who is included in Psychology Today's directory of Black psychiatrists?
If you're unable to find a psychiatrist who personally identifies as Black, you may also consider providers who demonstrate experience and an openness to working with individuals of all backgrounds. You might also explore a blended therapy approach—for example, seeing a psychiatrist for medication management while also working with a Black therapist or counselor for additional culturally-informed support. Psychology Today’s online directory is a helpful tool to support your search for Black provider. The directory allows you to filter specifically for Black or African American psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs). As you review provider profiles, consider their clinical focus to see whether they have experience with concerns related to racial identity, trauma, or specific populations (e.g., men, women, LGBTQ+ individuals). It's also important to review practical details such as therapeutic modalities, whether they offer in-person or telehealth services, languages spoken, and accepted insurance plans to ensure their care is accessible and aligned with your needs.
