I believe that anyone can benefit from therapy. We all sometimes need help adjusting to changes in our lives and knowing how to best take care of ourselves. When we’re in the day-to-day it's easy to get lost in our habits and struggle with making changes or reflecting on if what we’re doing is really helping/healthy. I’m here to support you and give you a safe space to explore your choices. Therapy should be a space where you can talk and gain insight into what’s going on in your life and how you want to proceed.

I am an accomplished psychotherapist with over 30 years of clinical experience. Also I am "certified" in family therapy, having obtained a post-masters degree in that field. Finally I am certified in EMDR, Brainspotting, and Internal Family Systems therapy which I use extensively to treat trauma, phobias,and self-sabotaging behavior and thinking. In addition to operating my own private practice in Pennsylvania until 2015, I was full time faculty at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center for 19 years and clinical faculty at the University of Pittsburgh and Penn State Medical schools for 10 years.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with 25 years of experience. My clients are mainly adults and young adults struggling with depression, anxiety, addictions, grief/loss, sexuality, relationships and stress. I also specialize in athlete mental health and sport performance issues. My office is located in Uptown New Orleans and easily accessible to Tulane and Loyola students.

Are you tired? Do you feel like life throws you one obstacle after another? Are you so overwhelmed that you sometimes feel paralyzed by stress or anxiety? If so, you're not alone. As a Black woman and New Orleans native, I understand what it means to embody resilience while weary of being known for that characteristic. But as a counselor, I understand how important emotional well-being, healthy relationships, and internal motivation are for sustaining difficult times. Therapy is a wonderful tool that can help you achieve stability and wellness. Don't let fear, worry, depression or shame keep holding you back from the life you want.
