Do you feel uneasy, tense, or unsafe in your own body? Trapped by your own thoughts and emotions, or a nagging feeling or muscular tension that seem unrelated to your emotional state? I know that feeling; that sensation that we try to ignore but just won’t go away. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, the stress of everyday life or the aftermath of trauma, your body is the container that holds it all—thoughts, feelings, sensations—all our lived experiences that make us who we are. Some of these experiences can help us thrive, feel safe and connected and some can make us feel stuck, uncertain, and reactive.

¡Hola! ¿Como Estas? I am a bilingual Mental Health Counselor with over 6 years of experience working with couples, families and individuals of all age groups. I specialize in life transitions, anxiety, family & relationship issues, and immigration. Life can be challenging and full of never wrecking moments leading us to feel anxious and depressed. It is important we take care of our mental health in hopes of living a healthier life. I believe therapy should make you feel comfortable in order to allow you to be open and honest which will in turn help you achieve your goals.

Do you find yourself feeling misunderstood, no matter what you do? You may be feeling fed up with not knowing truly who you are and what you want, feeling like you will never be truly happy again. You might not even remember a time things didn't feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you're ready for some relief. You're ready to stop feeling overwhelmed and stressed. You're ready to find your true authentic self and peace of mind. Most of all you're ready to create safe and reliable relationships with others, where you feel understood, heard, and cared for.

In today’s climate Americans are experiencing increased stress and mental health challenges. Despite the advancement in technology, people are feeling more alone, desire connection and struggle with coping strategies to manage life’s challenges. This is particularly true for the BIPOC community. As a woman, particularly an African American woman, I have first hand experiences with what we call “The Isms” or Intersectionality; racism, classism and sexism. It can be difficult navigating complex emotions and overwhelm without support. The good news is I’m here to guide you through your journey of healing.

I enjoy helping people find ways to make positive changes. My clients initially come to their first session with depression, anxiety, and frustration. They are trying to juggle family issues, along with financial and personal issues. Most people need effective skills to help them manage life with less frustration and stress, along with methods to improve their decision-making, thus improving the quality of their life.

Normal is just a setting on your dryer. If you agree with this, then I'm your guy! I don't believe in a "one size fits all" approach. I work collaboratively with individuals to help them achieve the skills and insight they need to successfully navigate through challenges posed by daily stressors, including, but not limited to: relationships, work, school, and physical illness. By providing a holistic approach, I support individuals in achieving their overall health; physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. I will respectfully consider your cultural background, religion, and personal beliefs while working together.
