I support adults, teens, and couples who are ready to grow, heal, and create healthier patterns. If stress, anxiety, burnout, trauma, or life transitions are impacting your daily life or relationships, I offer a compassionate, supportive space to build emotional awareness and work through challenges. As a person centered and trauma focused therapist, I help clients safely explore vulnerability, express themselves more fully, and strengthen communication. Together, we develop emotional regulation skills and practical coping strategies to navigate stress, conflict, and transitions with greater clarity, confidence, and connection.
I help clients heal from stress, anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges using CBT, DBT, and attachment based approaches. I teach grounding and emotional coping skills to help clients manage stress, regulate emotions, and build healthier patterns. As a Black male therapist, my approach is culturally responsive, compassionate, and trauma informed.
I create a space where you can feel safe, understood. If you’re ready to take that step, I’d be honored to support you. Reach out today and let’s connect.

Groups
Rooted Together: A Processing space for Black Men
This group offers a supportive space for Black men to slow down, reflect, and connect with others who understand their lived experiences. Many Black men carry stress from work, burnout, family responsibilities, and systemic pressures without space to process it openly. This group is designed to provide that space. Together, we’ll explore stress, identity and masculinity, vulnerability, emotional well-being, and self-care beyond survival. Through guided discussion and peer support, members will build emotional awareness, strengthen communication, and develop tools for navigating life’s challenges while fostering deeper connection with themselves and others.
