Tired of feeling unseen in therapy? You’re not broken—you’re overcoming. As a culturally affirming therapist, I help Black and Brown professionals, creatives, and survivors heal from anxiety, trauma, addiction, and self-doubt. Your healing isn’t one-size-fits-all, and your story deserves to be understood. Let’s break cycles, build confidence, and reclaim your power. Therapy should empower you, not erase you. You don’t have to do this alone. The first step starts here—let’s walk this path together. Remember, you belong here!
Greetings! I'm Dr. Cal - a virtual mental health clinician and wellness coach. As a counselor educator and clinician, I provide a safe, understanding space where your experiences are validated. My goal is to provide empowering opportunities and provide you tools to break cycles, reclaim your strength, and build a healthier, more fulfilled life.
I see you. The stress, the doubt, the weight of expectations—it’s a lot to carry alone. You deserve a space where you feel heard, understood, and valued. Healing isn’t easy, but you don’t have to do it by yourself. Together, we can break cycles, rebuild confidence, and create the peace you’ve been searching for. When you’re ready, I'm here for you!

My journey to becoming a therapist was deeply personal. Growing up in an underserved community, I faced my own battles with trauma, anxiety, and self-worth. Those experiences fueled my passion for mental health and led me my Doctorate in Counselor Education.

I help clients navigate trauma, anxiety, addiction, self-doubt, and identity struggles through culturally affirming therapy. A typical treatment plan includes deep self-exploration, coping strategies, and breaking unhelpful patterns. You can expect greater self-awareness, confidence, and emotional balance. Healing is possible, you don't have to do it alone!
