"EMDR & TELEHEALTH! Trauma healing, holistic wellness, self-empowerment, stress management, balance and living authentically are at the core of my practice. My wellness awakening is about your ability to transform, grow, change, connect, and create a new pattern of thinking that aligns with your personal life vision.

I look forward to experiencing life from your perspective and hope to help illuminate within you whatever you are seeking."

"**I am only accepting telehealth/online clients**. Making the decision to reach out for counseling can be really hard and you are already on the way towards living the life you want just by taking this step! I believe in meeting you where you are and working in a collaborative way to help address issues that may be causing you distress. While I take a problem-solving approach to helping clients, I also believe in the benefits of supportive therapy as people navigate daily challenges. "

"A golfer never wants to quit on a bad shot, so he makes sure he keeps going until he has a good shot. The same goes for our lives, right? I help high achievers, those of us who are driven and ambitious, have the same kind of success in their personal life as they do their professional life. If someone doesn't have this completeness, the gains are lost and their stresses -- like sex/love addiction, anxious/avoidant attachment issues, codependency, male & female sex issues incl PIED, - start to undermine their success. My clients want outstanding results. So do I."

"My practice includes work with individuals, intimate partners and other relational groups who want to focus on relationship and sexuality issues.

"As Doctor of Clinical Psychology and Master of Spiritual Psychology, I am combining a larger spiritual perspective with clinical insight and life skill oriented pragmatism. Crisis is opportunity. We facilitate transition into your greater potential by calling forth your inherent resources. Healing comes first, so coaching the mind can become maximally efficient. Your growth in awareness can shift formerly 'unseen inner mechanics' - unresolved pain, limiting beliefs etc. Setting dormant energy and creativity free lets you experience ease in every day living and helps you create harmonious relationships with Self and the world. "

We also work with infidelity, sexual trauma, and issues around divorce."

"Sometimes life can get overwhelming. You can’t stop fighting with the people you care about, you feel like your brain is rattling apart with all your worries, or you feel like you just don’t belong. You’re trapped in a spiral of negative thoughts, your relationships feel like they’re falling apart, or you’re struggling to find your identity. You want balance in your life so you can enjoy the things you've worked for. You want to connect with others in your relationships and learn how to accept yourself for all your strengths and imperfections. You want to learn how to cope with your feelings, communicate better, and feel heard."

"My collaborative approach to wellness allows us to work together to cultivate a relationship where your unique needs can be seen and supported. Part of our work together will include looking at your identity. I have a particular passion for working with Black women who may find themselves struggling to feel heard, represented, and navigate intimacy. Do you find yourself frustrated by being one of the few people who looks like you in your workplace or community? As you navigate careers and relationships, do you feel a sense of isolation, or the constant need to prove yourself? I’m here to support you as you work toward success."

"Our work together will be a journey of exploring the source of your distress and how to alleviate it. I like to use a combination of cognitive-behavioral techniques for faster results--and a more in-depth process (if needed, and if so desired) to explore lifelong issues to identify triggers and obstacles throughout lifespan development. Working together, we can find ways to unlock whatever it is that creates negative experiences and feelings in your life. The goal? Free yourself to live the life you want. I work with most PPO insurance, am in network with Cigna and Beacon, and work with Preferred One."

"Whether you have concerns within your relationships, or you are dealing with grief or loss, distress moving through a phase of life, unresolved issues from childhood, fears, self-esteem, questioning your direction in life, experiencing anxiety or depression - uncovering the stuck places and shining light on them with a trained and trusted ear, can assist in claiming what it is genuine and true for you. Finding the right fit with a therapist that allows you to feel safe and open is critical. Therapy can be stressful to begin and it takes courage, so good for you for starting. "
