I receive each patient's trust as a privilege, and treat with deep respect, the counseling process for each person.

I'm down to help with career development, financial aspirations, improving interpersonal relationships, overcoming deep griefs and traumas, and more... I'm game for it all.

This profession is personal for me because growing up I never saw many people who looked like me that were therapist. Additionally, I wanted to erase the mental health stigma in the African American community and bring awareness that just because a person seeks therapy does not mean they are crazy. In my opinion, everyone could use therapy. I don't know anyone that does not have some issues that he or she can be working on in therapy.

I believe that you should feel comfortable with the therapist you choose and hopeful about the therapy. When you feel this way, therapy is more likely to have a positive outcome. Please allow me to describe how I see therapy. I use a cognitive behavioral approach, which is based on the idea that our thoughts cause our feelings and behaviors, not things such as people, situations, and events. I am a firm believer that we can change the way we think, feel, and act even if the situation does not change. Today you are one step closer to a new "you" where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being.

With over 18 years of experience in the mental health field, I specialize in helping women rediscover their voice and reclaim their confidence. Since 2006, I’ve worked with adults, children, families, and couples, with symptoms related to ADHD, depression, PTSD, mood disorders, and various anxiety-related issues. In 2018, I started my own practice, and today my focus is helping women who have spent years nurturing others but now find themselves feeling "stuck"—uncertain of their dreams, disconnected, and yearning for more. My approach to therapy is profoundly shaped by my own history with childhood trauma.
