Stress is inevitable, it's how we respond to it that matters. While stress can be a catalyst for spiritual, physical, and emotional growth, it impacts our well-being. During stressful times, it's important to recognize emotional and physical changes. Often, we neglect our internal experiences because of the fear of pain. When we avoid the pain, we essentially shut ourselves off from growth. My goal is to support you through challenging times, allowing you to open fully to the present moment by incorporating compassion-oriented & mindfulness-based strategies to withstand the suffering and lean into a growth mindset.

Are you struggling to manage your child's behavior or your own reactions to his/her behavior? Do you have a teen or young adult who is struggling or with whom communication is difficult? Are you overwhelmed and finding it challenging to manage life's demands? Are you seeking to understand yourself better, improve your communication with loved ones or your relationships with them? Have you had childhood trauma or a recent traumatic event that is still impacting you in the present and you wish to heal? If so, I'd love to help.

The chance to be heard and seen with warmth and compassion is what I strive to provide in my therapy sessions. We’ll work together at a pace that you are comfortable with in a collaborative conversation that validates your life experiences. It may take some time to build trust but my hope is that you can speak unfiltered about whatever life circumstances have brought you to therapy.

How have the challenges of being expected to fit into others’ expectations of you impacted your daily life? What has it meant for you to cope with microaggressions and biased criticisms as a Black person in America? Carrying the burdens of racial trauma, depression, and anxiety can feel like an uphill battle. If this is true for you, then therapy can help you to take steps in the direction of your best self. You should feel empowered and supported while standing in your truth.

Call for an appointment if you struggle with ADHD, anxiety, chronic illness, surgery preparation, prenatal or postpartum depression, relationship challenges, stress management, life skills, life transitions, insomnia, or want to create a healthier lifestyle. I blend Eastern philosophy with Western psychology in my holistic practice. If you have tried traditional therapy and have not found relief, I'd love the opportunity to help you become the best version of yourself. I regret to inform potential clients that I have been and continue to be on medical leave. I will update you when I can practice again. Thanks
