You’re successful on paper—but inside, you’re exhausted, anxious, and carrying more than anyone realizes. You’re a driven, ambitious Black woman or woman of color trying to balance it all—career, relationships, family—while wrestling with stress, self-doubt, or the weight of unhealed trauma. You may find yourself stuck in survival mode, repeating old patterns, and wondering why traditional therapy hasn’t led to deeper change. You crave peace, purpose, and a way to feel whole again. You're ready for healing that reaches beyond the surface—something more integrative, embodied, and aligned with who you truly are.
My 50–90 min sessions blend EMDR, IFS, and holistic practices like yoga, breathwork, meditation, and expressive arts. Through a culturally responsive and trauma-informed lens, I help clients break generational patterns, calm their bodies, and reconnect with their inner wisdom—so they can heal and grow with clarity, confidence, and a deeper sense of peace.
If traditional talk therapy isn't what you are looking for or hasn’t been enough—let’s go deeper, together. Book a free consultation to see if we’re a good fit. I also offer clinical supervision for aspiring LCSWs, business and career coaching, and community wellness groups for those ready to heal and grow in community with other likeminded individuals.

I absolutely enjoy putting a spin on what therapy can look like and who's to say therapy is what you need? Blending traditional therapy with mind-body practices and offer coaching services has been a game changer with my clients. I also offer intensives (beyond 60 minute sessions) for those wanting a more deeper and intimate feel for therapy. Let's chat to figure out the best route for you!
