Black and African American Therapists in Aurora, CO

I believe that our nation needs a healing, and one of the best ways to achieve that is for each of us to begin to heal ourselves.

I view psychotherapy as a process of exploration and affirmation of one's life path, including the experiences and wisdom gained along this journey. This is just the beginning point for the psychotherapeutic process of healing and identifying one's pathway to continue the journey of personal growth, transformation and achieving balance (mind, body & Spirit). I see my role as a therapist as that of a witness and source of support and knowledge, joining with you to help facilitate the individual process of developing a deeper sense of self-awareness, achieving personal growth and transformation: to create the life you want.

Marriage/ Couples Counseling and Individual counseling. I work with Individuals and couples to overcome barriers in their way of a healthy relationship. That may be childhood trauma that keeps showing up in the way you trust or interact with your partner, or it may be communication, possibly parenting stress. If emotional distance is growing in your relationship and your partner is starting to feel like someone you don’t know, maybe there has been infidelity, you can heal from this, whether that looks like rebuilding or healing on your own.

Racial trauma, adjusting to Covid-19, school stress, work life balance, self-esteem, and relationships, among other issues are difficult to deal with. Let's work through them together. Your emotions are normal, it is the way you express and cope with them that is important. I want to support you with your goals of feeling more confident in yourself, feeling more fulfilled in your typical activities, or feeling more understood. You deserve a safe space to process, heal, and grow.

I commend you for taking the first step to prioritizing your mental health. Looking for the counselor that best fits your needs and desires can be an intimidating, overwhelming, and exhausting process. I wholeheartedly believe people are as unique as their fingerprints, so I offer a variety of therapeutic treatment modalities and I use the Systems approach when working with families. Together, we will collaborate to identify your goals and develop a treatment plan.

Have you ever felt isolated or like nobody really understands you? Maybe your problems seem too large or too complex, and you feel lost and frustrated. I enjoy helping my clients see their world in a new light and get “unstuck”. I primarily work with individuals and couples on a variety of issues from addiction to maintaining stable mental health. I will listen to your story, help you identify your strengths, and collaborate with you to create a pathway to healing.

Nothing seems to be working, as the day’s pass you noticed a disconnect. The relationship is becoming unfamiliar. Your partner no longer feels like your partner. Arguments are more common than compliments and toxic exchanges seem like the norm these days. The stress is starting to affect other aspects of your life. The relationship with yourself seems more like a distant memory. You could use a vent session with someone who gets it. whether you're arguing more with your partner or constantly yelling at the kids. Do you find yourself wondering what happened to the laughter and love? Where did the relationships take a detour?

Clients to have a safe place to unpack whatever is on their heart and foster healing, growth, and change.

You have the skills you need to achieve your goals. Often, we aren’t conscious of what causes us stress, nor are we aware of the memories that we hold physically. Life on the planet is stressful, I know you don’t always feel like like you have the energy to face it. The fact is that you do continue to face it, that's an accomplishment. My goal is to help you figure "it "out. So often in life, we become experts at everything except ourselves. Together we will identify your goals, and then we will develop the plan to achieve them. If you would like to schedule an appointment, email me your name, birth date and your phone number.

Rapid Eye Technology (RET) is a powerful ocular-assisted stress relief technique and a leading modality in treating PTSD symptoms. This powerful quick release happens without reliving the trauma. RET simulates REM sleep—your body’s own natural release system where problems are solved. Accessing the whole mind/body system while in an awake state allows you to be in control of your own journey; you now have your conscious mind to make a new choice concerning presenting issues. It's all part of your natural discharge mechanism and helps in repairing neural pathways that have been distorted by traumatic memories.
