For over 40 years, I've been a beacon for those navigating the heavy weight of Depression, Anxiety, and Grief. I specialize in the complex intersection of Co-occurring Disorders (Mental Health & Substance Use) and the unique challenges faced in Same-Gender Relationships.
I describe myself as a Big Black Beautiful Bohemian Bougie Buddhist Butch—a legacy inspired by Audre Lorde. This identity is the foundation of the "unconditional positive regard" I offer every client. My work is about eradicating the stigma that prevents us from seeking help and replacing it with a safe, serene environment where you can finally be heard.
Utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychoeducation, and "accents of humor and spirituality," I help you lay a foundation of trust. We won't just talk; we will set tangible goals to help you reach your unlimited potential.
You can expect to be heard, validated, and treated with profound respect as we begin this sacred process of healing together. Ready to reclaim your spark? Click "My Website" to schedule your session with me.
