Life can feel overwhelming when you’re carrying your own stress along with generational, cultural, or societal pressures. You may feel anxious, emotionally drained, or disconnected from yourself. I provide a safe, supportive space for women, children, and men of color to feel seen, understood, and supported. My approach is warm, genuine, and culturally responsive. I meet you where you are and work collaboratively to build resilience, strengthen coping skills, and support meaningful change. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, identity concerns, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.
I specialize in supporting women, children, and men of color navigating anxiety, trauma, life transitions, identity, and relationship challenges. I offer a culturally responsive space using CBT, DBT, narrative therapy, play therapy, and motivational interviewing to promote healing, insight, and real-life coping skills.
I know that reaching out for support isn’t always easy—but it’s a strong and meaningful first step.If you’re feeling overwhelmed, unsure of where to start, or simply ready for something to shift, I’m here to meet you where you are. Our work together will be a space where you can show up just as you are—no pressure, no judgment, and always at your own pace.
