What's good! You've built something real. The career, the income, the life that looks like success from the outside. But privately? You're exhausted. The pressure never stops. The fear that one wrong move unravels everything you've worked for sits in your chest like a weight. You're the one everyone leans on, and nobody's asking if you're okay. I built WeUp for you. Because I know that feeling from the inside.
I help Black men who take care of everyone else but themselves reconnect with their feelings and emotions so they can express who they are without feeling weak and show up as the husbands, fathers, and friends they want to be. I help them find language for what they've never been able to say out loud; first to themselves, then to the people they love.
Taking that first step is hard, especially when you're used to handling everything alone. But you found this page for a reason. You can have success at work AND enjoy your life too. Let's chop it up. Free 15-minute consultation, no pressure, no judgment.

Over 10 years in mental health, working primarily with Black men. But beyond my credentials, I'm a Black man who has lived what my clients carry. I did the work. I'm still doing the work. That's why I get it without you having to explain it.

I work with clients who are struggling with balancing high demanding careers with the high expectations they have for how they believe they should be living their life. Often times my clients are very successful at work but are noticing that they are still feeling frustrated, exhausted, and unsatisfied outside of it. Initial sessions work to find balance thru boundary setting & improving self-care

I often use a combination of modalities which include CBT, Client-Centered, and Solutions-Focused Therapy. You can expect the first session to be more informational as we explore what brought you to therapy, what you hope will be different in your life as result of working with me. All of our sessions after the first one will be focused on getting us as close to that desired outcome as possible.
