Verified by Psychology Today
Oakland, CA 94605
Let's Connect (341) 999-7430
I offer expertise in evidence-based treatments for anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties. I use a collaborative and strengths-based approach that integrates cultural factors as appropriate. I was raised in an inner-city, urban area, and I carry a high level of understanding for individuals that come from marginalized environments like myself. I also specialize in professional and work stress. I have been a business owner, philanthropist, and investor for almost 30 years. I have experience with high output career stress and how it can affect us.
I have advanced specialized training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Trauma and Grief, American Society of Addiction Medicine Assessment (ASAM), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I am also a certified Domestic Violence facilitator.
I have supported thousands of individuals needing mental health support in the Criminal Justice System, Adult Probation, Juvenile Justice System, Drug Court, and drug and alcohol involvement. I also serve as a Board member for 2 organizations where we mentor hundreds of young men of color to be successful.
