If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

If you find yourself preparing and bracing for that offensive comment; you regulate your speech, dress, and actions to fit in or be safe; or you navigate how much of your experiences to share for fear that you won’t be heard, or that your story will show different your reality is from others—then I want you to know that you’re not crazy, and you don’t have to go it alone. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who knows what it’s like to be immersed in spaces that don’t culturally or racially reflect me, my identity, or my values. And to live in spaces that reject me as I live into my full identity as a black man, a person of color.

All people struggle at some point in their lives. Each of us has difficulty managing, especially when life throws us a curve ball – like a diagnosis of chronic illness, failure in school or work, a relationship that blows up or the death of a loved one. Times like these can leave us feeling lost and alone. We may even have thoughts like “I’m a failure” or “I will never get over this”. I understand. And I want you to know that I can help. I can help you feel better, find your joy and live the healthiest life possible.

Is anxiety exhausting you? Are your fears and worries getting in the way of your professional life? Do you want to feel more calm, confident, and competent? Whether it's chronic stress or sudden panic attacks, anxiety can make it hard to face the day. But let's not forget about nighttime - waking up at 3am with thoughts you can't shut off can be frustrating and debilitating, both emotionally and physically.

I enjoy "MAKING LIFE & LOVE BETTER." . With my 20 plus years of experience as a relationship counselor, my goal is to provide personal counseling for individuals and couples (married or partnered). My approach incorporates a combination of traditional, contemporary and holistic counseling techniques.

CONFIDENTIALITY is always in place except when permission is given by the client.

Everyone has problems from time to time. Therapy can help. Choosing to seek help for depression, anxiety or other problems that are getting in the way of your happiness can be difficult and scary. My approach is direct and open, and focuses on enhancing your personal growth and ability to cope with life's problems. You are most likely to see benefits from therapy if you are motivated, honest, and willing to work at self-improvement and self-awareness. I will treat you with dignity and respect, and work with you to help you achieve your goals.

You are an adoptive parent who has researched, read books and blogs, tried lots of different interventions with many different professionals, but nothing seems to be working. Your child still struggles with attachment and behavior issues, and weeks where you don't get a call from school are few and far between. It feels like your entire family life revolves around managing the high intensity needs of your child, and the idea of alone time or self-care seems like a distant dream. Seeing your child in emotional pain breaks your heart, and all of the love you have to give doesn't seem like enough, leaving you at the end of your rope.

Currently NOT accepting new clients. Together we will move through areas in your life that are challenging. Let's move together through challenging transitions. Sometimes the challenge is due to experiences considered traumatic - when an event or events have overwhelmed your nervous system such as divorce, illness, loss. Don't let these experiences prevent you from evolving into your best self. Move out what could be holding you back. You owe this to yourself. I am here to help. Call me if you want to diminish symptoms, you want to enjoy life, have more joy, and especially choice. Move from survive to thrive.

NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME: We all have times when we feel stuck or feel like something is off. Life can be challenging, and navigating those challenges can be difficult. Processing the struggles and transitions we face with a professional is often necessary, Additionally, certain past issues or traumas need to be explored in order to move forward. I would love the opportunity to meet with you, hear your story, and see how I can help. Together, we will find the most comfortable and best approach to help you get "unstuck" and move toward a more fulfilling life.

What would life be like if you could spend more time doing what really matters instead of just making it through the day and surviving? Have you experienced hard things in your past that still affect you today, and you wish that would change? Do you feel that sharp twinge in your chest when you think about just how far away you are from the relationships you want? If you have ever struggled with motivation, meaning, a difficult childhood, or a relationship that has lost its fire and hope, you understand how painful and gray the world can be when life isn't working.
