I am a mental health counselor who enjoys helping people become the best version of themselves. My passion is for supporting athletes and other high performers on their journey to peak performance. As a football coach, track coach, strength and conditioning coach, and a black mental health professional, I bring a unique perspective to the field. I have worked with professional, collegiate, high school, and AAU athletes. My experience extends beyond traditional therapy, incorporating music, mindfulness practices, visualization techniques, and performance psychology.

Are you struggling with connecting to the important people in your life? Are you feeling lost or wondering what is next? Are you asking yourself what is it going to take to get out of this rut? Are you finding yourself in a constant cycle of negative self-talk? Well if so, then I am here to assist. The truth is that mental health bleeds in to all facets of life. I believe having strong mental health directly correlates with our ability to perform as our best selves. It is especially difficult to be the best spouse, sibling, child, employee, etc if our mental health is in decline.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
