As a Black woman therapist, I am deeply passionate about creating a safe, supportive, and empowering space for teens, young adults, and women of color to feel heard, valued, and understood. I know how difficult it can be to navigate life while balancing family expectations, academic pressure, relationships, identity, and the constant feeling that you have to hold everything together.

"Mental strength is not the ability to stay out of the darkness; it's the ability to sit present in the darkness knowing the light will shine again”, (ADHDsuperhero). I have a passion for assisting my clients through this process. Self-care is a practice we rarely exercise. You cannot care for others until you take care of yourself. Make the decision to take time for you; you are worth it!

Welcoming couples clients! Relationship problems are common, and you have taken a courageous step by seeking therapy.

As a zillennial (member of both Millennials and Gen Z) Black woman, I love working with women, nonbinary femmes, and girls of color ages 15-35. I know too well the pressures that come with being high-achieving, having marginalized identities, and simply existing in our bodies as people of color. Though each client has unique goals for their therapy journey, I believe that everyone deserves at least one space where they can fully be themselves. I feel most alive when working with clients who hold these identities and are navigating issues of anxiety, self-esteem, Gifted Kid Burnout, relationship challenges, or stress.

They may not know what they need to change or how, but they are "mostly" ready and motivated to do the work.

Everybody deserves a space to feel safe, seen, heard, and respected. Therapy is a possible place for this to happen and I would love to be a part of that journey. Together, we can work through challenging emotions, feelings, thoughts, and social hurdles that come up. My job is to hold space for you and those challenges so that they can be explored without judgement or fear and to remind you that you are not alone when the journey feels lonely. I service teens and adults that are looking to learn more about themselves, grow into their values, and recognize and cultivate the strength that is already within them.

Where you are is not where you have to stay.
I work with adults who are open, willing, and ready to show up for themselves. They may be struggling, but they have a desire to heal, and that's all they need to begin. Many clients arrive at a turning point: a loss, a transition, or a moment when the weight of anxiety, depression, or trauma becomes too heavy to carry. I walk alongside my client, listening deeply, providing psychoeducation, and tailoring our work to their unique goals, so they can move from surviving to truly living. I provide a safe space where clients can express themselves freely and build the tools they need to heal.

I began my path as a therapist seven years ago, focusing on providing essential support to children and adults who have experienced complex trauma, child abuse, and neglect. This experience has immersed me in the lives of clients facing severe mental health challenges and has deepened my understanding of the impact of trauma. I have learned the importance of empowering individuals as they confront their past, navigate their present, and build a hopeful future. Along the way, I have witnessed the incredible resilience that people are capable of.

I work with individuals experiencing trauma related to grief and loss, sexual assault, gun violence, first-generation responsibilities, low self-esteem, cultural expectations, toxic relationships, and major life transitions.

From campfires to coping skills—my journey to mental health began with kids. I’ve always been passionate about working with children, starting as a camp counselor and assistant daycare teacher. Those early experiences lit a spark in me—a deep commitment to supporting children and their families through life’s ups and downs. That passion naturally led me to a career in mental health. While children and adolescents are where my passions began, I believe that healing and growth are possible at any stage of life. I welcome clients of all ages!

If you’re going to invest this much time and energy, you want therapy that actually moves the needle—not just insight.
