Do you find it difficult to ask for help? Asking for assistance doesn't equate to weakness, it's actually a strength! As an African American / Caribean counselor I am able to serve my community with relatable shared experiences. I pride myself on encouraging my clients to see and be the light that is already within them. I use an integrative approach in that each individual is unique and processes thoughts differently. Mindfulness-based CBT allows clients to find peace within themselves through grounding. This heightened awareness of self enables us to live in accordance with our values even in the face of opposition.

Stress and trauma patterns often represent themselves as disruptive, repetitive cycles of thoughts, emotions, and/or relational behaviors that an individual endures, These cycles may look like a thought loop that keeps you awake at night or prevents you from engaging socially. Perhaps it is instead, or also, a rush of overwhelming emotion (sadness, anger) at a social encounter that seems like it should not have carried that much weight. These patterns may also be experienced as repeating dynamics in friendships or partnerships (for example, "I keep dating people who do not seem to see my needs in the relational space").

Our work together will focus on helping you gain insights and ultimately make changes to achieve your goals, full potential, and wellbeing. Through therapy you can better manage and ease life's challenges, experience emotional relief, feel empowered, and improve your overall functioning. Having lived and worked in multiple countries and cultures, I appreciate both our shared humanity and what makes us unique. Therefore, I strive to help you feel seen, heard, and cared for, while also identifying and challenging patterns and beliefs that are no longer serving you.

I specialize in complicated cases where people may have multiple psychiatric disorders, other medical conditions, personality disorders, or long-standing problems that they have had trouble resolving.

I provide treatments that are backed by research and also offer detailed diagnostic assessments. Have your appointments in the office, via telehealth, or at the beach!

I have been a practicing social work therapist for almost twenty years. My experience has brought me the benefit of understanding the struggle of life and the resiliency of the human spirit. While working in multiple mental health settings, including Rikers Island, I was responsible for people with major depressive issues, anxiety and PTSD as well as a myriad of psychosocial stressors. Though their struggles were vast and varied, I was able to work with each person to accomplish a higher level of functioning resulting in hopefulness about their future and positive regard for themselves. I can help you!

Life is too short to live it feeling unsatisfied, confused, depleted and or powerless. Sometimes you can manage, but other times you want to turn to someone who will provide an compassionate, non-judgmental space for you to (re)connect with your deepest, most authentic self. Maybe you're in a relationship which feels stagnant, emotionally/physically disconnected or is burdened by accumulated hurts and betrayals, and you and your partner are seeking clarity, support and a new way of being either together or apart. Being skillful in relationships with others (and oneself) has become essential, and is central to our well being.

We all have the ability to be our best self. My role is to help you to tap into your potential and encourage personal growth while providing the space that you need to rethink patterns of thought and behavior that no longer provide you with the outcome that you desire.

Accepting new clients! Stop putting yourself last, break free of self-sabotaging habits, and start uncovering your authentic self to move toward the future you're dreaming of. Many of the patterns we experience in our lives are the result of things we have learned in our past environments. This can show up in our lives as anxiety, stress, depression, feelings of disconnection, sadness, and more. Maybe you find yourself agreeing with those around you just to keep the peace, unsure of your own needs, acting like a chameleon to fit in with those around you, or anxious just trying to handle the stressors of your daily life.
