My ideal client is someone who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves and their relationships. They might be a young adult struggling to prioritize themselves, navigate codependency, or build internal validation. I often work with Black women looking for cultural alignment, LGBTQ+ individuals, and couples navigating non-traditional relationships (ENM, polyamory, or age gaps). They’re seeking a therapy space that feels human and flexible—one that meets them exactly where they are with absolute curiosity, care, and zero judgment.
Known as the "homegirl therapist," I bring my authentic self into a collaborative space to help you do the same. I help individuals and couples understand their emotional patterns using Gottman method frameworks, client-centered parts work, and DBT-based radical acceptance, so you can confidently pour back into yourself and your growth.
Main issues I treat: self-prioritization, codependency, queer & faith identity intersection, parent coaching, and non-traditional relationship concerns (including conscious uncoupling). A typical plan involves building internal validation, setting firm boundaries, and strengthening coping skills so you can feel grounded, confident, and aligned in your daily.
