Currently accepting new clients I am licensed in DC, MD, VA, PA, MA, and SC and have experience working with adults, young adults, and adolescents. My counseling approach is warm, empathetic, and person-centered as I am passionate about meeting each client where they are and then collectively work to establish goals to achieve personal healing and growth. I also have experience working with women's health issues, depression, anxiety, grief and trauma. I offer support to adults as they navigate familial changes and life transitions.

Currently Accepting New Clients! I take a person-centered, solution-focused approach to therapy, tailoring our work based on what resonates best with you. This style is especially helpful for individuals who come in with a growth mindset and are open to exploring where they feel stuck. Together, we’ll identify the patterns, stressors, or barriers that may be getting in the way of your progress. I’ll also ask about any previous experiences you’ve had in therapy so I can understand what has (or hasn’t) been helpful. My goal is to ensure that every session feels meaningful and productive for you.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I believe therapy should feel like a safe return to yourself. A space where you don’t have to shrink, perform, or have all the answers. Just a place to be. Whether you're navigating a life transition, feeling emotionally stuck, or simply curious about what healing can look like, I’m here to support you. My approach is grounded, compassionate, and collaborative. I believe in honoring your lived experiences and working at a pace that feels respectful to your nervous system, your identity, and your goals.

My practice is designed for individuals seeking a level of clinical expertise beyond general therapy. I specialize in PNES, functional neurological disorders, and trauma-related conditions at the intersection of neurology and psychology. Many I work with have pursued prior treatment without resolution and are ready for a more precise, expert-led approach. I also work with high-functioning adults navigating internal strain who seek deeper, more rigorous work. This is a specialized practice designed for individuals seeking a high level of clinical expertise, engagement, and psychological depth.

Accepting new clients- Life is hard. Most of us want to think that it gets easier but that only occurs when our skills (emotional, mental, physical, spiritual) improve. Therapy is the perfect place to learn and practice new skills while getting the encouragement to make it through life's toughest moments. And I am ready for you. I work with all clients and specialize in the Black/Brown communities, LGBTQ population, couples, and adolescents. I value intersectionality, solutions-focused work, and holistic practices.

From my experiences, I know that there is no “one-size-fits-all” treatment and work in conjunction with clients to address concerns and identify problem areas. Through providing a nurturing, non-judgemental and supportive space, I help clients develop insight as well as skills to help clients reach their full potential. I work from a strengths-based perspective and believe that the relationship is essential in a therapeutic setting.
