I have over 15 years of experience working with individuals, and families who struggle a variety of life issues. My approach will be holistic, strength-based, person-centered approach. I am passionate about helping others empower themselves to manage any life challenges they face. My goal as a counselor is to provide a safe environment for you.

Our counseling exists to serve individuals and couples through professional counseling. Our counseling goal is to impact lives on a spiritual, emotional, and mental level. Counseling also involves the sharing of personal problems, concerns, and stories with a professional who is skilled at helping the client or clients come to a resolution or solution about their particular situation. The general goals for the client are that he or she can identify the issue(s), develop a plan of action, and then implement that plan to move forward and progress in spite of their spiritual, emotional and/or mental setbacks.

Stressful life events can make you feel as though your world is unraveling. Seeking help with navigating challenges can be difficult, overwhelming, and scary; but that is the first step in the healing process. My great passion is supporting adults and teens with stressful or traumatic experiences, depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, and life transitions. I create a nonjudgmental and empathetic space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings and beliefs.

I began as a life coach and became a therapist in 2017 because I wanted to help people in a deeper way. I adjust to your pace: maybe you are coming in with a concern about something that happened recently and you just want another person's insight on it; or maybe you have past trauma that you'd like to finally unhook from. With deeper work, I like to get an idea of your whole picture -- emotionally, psychologically and spiritually -- so I can help you reach whatever goal or resolve whatever issue you come in with.

I provide a caring, confidential, nonjudgemental environment for adolescents and adults to explore issues of disordered eating, depression and life transitions including divorce, death and grief. In addition to my counseling profession, I am also a Registered Dietitian (RD), with an increased focus on food being used to soothe emotions. My interest is to help individuals using a whole person approach with empirically supported treatments to reach increased health, well being and simply to live their best life. Together we will explore obstacles to making changes and motivation.

Are you at a career crossroads – entering the workforce, re-careering, retiring? Struggling with choosing a field of study or career path? Transitioning from military to civilian life/career? Stressing about having multiple generations living under one roof? Experiencing anxiety about going away to college? As a career/employment counselor with over 20 years of experience working with individuals and groups in various stages of personal and professional development, my empathetic, yet straightforward approach, helps individuals/groups feel understood and confident in navigating the dynamics of career transformations.

As an African American plus-sized member of the queer community, I am no stranger to religious trauma, confining closets, family rejection and making myself feel small for the comfort of others. For these reasons, I aim to create a safe and affirming environment where you can breathe deeply, take up space, and be your truest and most authentic self. Whether you're struggling with your gender identity and sexuality, racial identity & discrimination, body image & self esteem or dealing with mental health issues, I am here to help you navigate that journey.

Counseling is deeply personal and relational in nature. I strive to create a place of safety and hope for all those who would seek counseling with me. I work to maintain a trauma informed and multicultural practice; meaning that I understand and am sensitive to the effects of trauma as well as the impact that culture has on the lives of my clients. As such I endeavor to practice in a way that welcomes and embraces individuals from all different backgrounds.

Are you struggling with a loss of interest in normal activities or with a feeling of hopelessness, do you feel consumed with grief, struggle meeting goals, maybe you find it difficult to communicate effectively with family, coworkers, or friends. Life has many transitions and you may need help coping with them (new or loss of a job, college, empty nest, separation, parenting etc). I offer you a safe nonjudgmental space to assist you with finding solutions to your concerns. I am a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor & Limited Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist & I can't wait to help you through your therapeutic journey.

You deserve to live a life that leaves you excited to wake up every morning. Are you ready to make a change in your life? It takes courage to ask for help, but the rewards of doing so can lead to a lifetime of fulfillment. I understand and have experienced the emotional challenges life has to offer. In working together, we will cultivate growth by understanding the obstacles that you face and develop solutions that can help you gain control of your life and achieve your goals. Ultimately, therapy can lead you to greater self-awareness, self-esteem, and most importantly, a more fulfilling life. Evenings and Weekends work great!

I value openness to new experiences, to different ways of thinking, to honest conversations, to more authentic ways of living. My goal is for the therapy environment to be characterized by openness, where there are no taboo topics and you’re supported in talking about anything. I’m committed to providing an open, affirming therapy experience, where therapy helps you open doors to more genuine and more effective ways of engaging in life.

Reaching out can be the most challenging task to engage in. Constant changes and life transitions can leave us feeling disconnected and overwhelmed. Relationships can feel strained with our partners, friends, family and even ourselves. Creating space to navigate these life impacts is one way I seek to help clients.
