Ever feel like you are holding a lot but those closest to you cannot see it? Are you a high achiever and driven but facing internal pressure, fatigue, and a constant need to hold it together for others?
I work with high-achieving professionals, particularly Black, Indigenous, and other individuals of color who are navigating burnout, identity, relationships, and the emotional weight that comes with being “the strong one.” Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to perform, filter, or shrink. We slow things down and explore ways to heal to find peace and balance in your everyday life.
I can offer support tailored to your needs and schedule. I ground in frameworks such as intersectionality and liberation psychotherapy while weaving in non-Eurocentric concepts of theories such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT). In our partnership, we will explore frameworks suited best for you and your goals.
Reaching out is the hardest part but once you show up the first session, you’ll be happy you made that step. Schedule a 15-minute consultation to discuss your needs and goals today. During this call you'll learn more about the therapy process and how I will approach our work together in sessions to determine if I'm a fit for you.
