My passion is rooted in working with individuals who may find themselves faced with life challenges of depression, anxiety, and trauma, as well as cultural specific barriers faced in the Black and POC community.
I enjoy helping others embrace their power. Although my primary way of helping others address these hardships is through a cognitive and behavioral approach, I believe integrating techniques catered to the individual is optimal for change. I'll walk on this journey with you, co-creating a safe environment that encourages exploration and growth.

You have so much on your plate, trying to keep up with work, family, relationships, and your personal goals. Some days it feels like no matter how hard you try, you’re not giving enough or doing it the way you wish you could. You’re pulled in a hundred directions, and finding even a little time for yourself feels impossible. The expectations weigh you down, leaving you stressed, frustrated, and doubting yourself. You put on a smile and try to push through, but inside you feel like you’re barely keeping your head above water. And that just makes you feel even more alone, like no one really gets it. It doesn't have to be this way.

I support clients who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected despite appearing “put together” on the outside. Many struggle with burnout, low self-esteem, boundaries, or unresolved trauma influenced by cultural stress. They are seeking a culturally responsive, nonjudgmental space to gain insight, regulate emotions, and heal at their own pace. Their goal is to feel calmer, more confident, and more connected to themselves while creating healthier patterns.
