Are you feeling down? Nervous about performing your best? Could your relationships improve? Congratulations! Your search landed you on the page of a trauma-informed, compassionate and affirming psychologist. A proud Morehouse Man, my journey has taught me that life can be very hard and the road to success (whatever that means for you) can be lonely- especially in settings that lack inclusivity. This is further complicated when asking for help is frowned upon. You should be celebrating and relishing in your accomplishments, strengths, undying resiliency- and I want to help you get there!
You deserve the gifts of therapy and I can help you challenge the sea of negative voices from trauma, low self-esteem, external expectations, and other burdens. You CAN live a fulfilled life! As a "professional blind-spot seer," I will help you dive deep and thrive through individual therapy, couples, or clinical assessment!
If left unchecked, these struggles can breed Depression, Anxiety, Imposter Syndrome, Burnout, physical pain, and more. I am passionate about demystifying therapy and creating interventions that meet your specific needs- especially those of you burdened with "Being the First" and constantly told “not mess up.” Reach out and let's get started today!
