Now Accepting Virtual Clients in 39 states! Check my website to see if I'm practicing near you. 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 hard and the road to success can be lonely-especially in settings that lack diversity. This is further complicated when asking for help is frowned upon because of cultural mistrust and expectations. Hesitation or unwarranted self-appraisal can result when, instead, you should be celebrating your many accomplishments, your strength and undying resiliency!

Currently No Evening Hours Available! I work with high-achieving, strong men and women who are usually the pillars of their families, friend groups, and communities who support everyone else BUT themselves. I create a safe and non-judgmental space for you to release anxiety, develop deeper awareness, and gain an understanding of what has kept you stuck in unhealthy cycles and negative self-perceptions. For clients desiring faith-based treatment, I help them explore their relationship with God and faith where they feel disconnected instead of living free.

I commend you for taking the first step in creating a life that you love. So many of us are in the midst of experiencing life challenges that cause us pain. These challenges take many forms – family issues, health concerns, loneliness, financial strain, anxiety about the future…Sometimes, what may be causing us distress are dreams that have gone unfulfilled; life not going as planned. For many of us, we’ve struggled with such questions as, “Am I enough?”, “Who has my back?”, “Will I ever have the life that I want?”

You don’t have to be the “strong one” here. There’s space for you to let your guard down and not keep it together for everyone else.

Maya Angelou said, " People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” My goal is to create a space that allows you to FEEL seen, valued, and empowered. Life can be challenging, and seeking support can be even more difficult at times. However, if you are reading this it tells me that you are likely making the first steps to change something in your life or in the lives of your loved ones. I believe that everyone has an inner strength and the ability for growth and change. I would be grateful to support you on that journey.

Maybe, on paper, you’re successful, well-accomplished, and admired, but others don’t see that you are often overwhelmed with imposter syndrome and a general feeling of not being good enough. It could be that you desire healthy relationships, but can’t quite figure out what’s blocking you from having the emotional intimacy that you desire. Perhaps you recognize patterns of trauma in your family and you’re ready to interrupt the patterns. Or, your life may not be in complete crisis, but you want to be sure that you are addressing areas that may be preventing you from living your life to the fullest.

So many times in life we struggle with the "everyday things" that can at times feel much more than we are equipped to handle. Have you been struggling with self-esteem or self-worth? Navigating how you show up in the relationships around you? Trying to keep a handle on this thing called life and just wishing that there was some sort of answer key that could tell you if you were on the right track? Being able to move through life unapologetically is the ultimate goal for many of us; I want to help you identify your voice, find your truth and stand in it boldly!

Hello! My name is Tiffany (she/her), and I am a holistic psychotherapist that operates, first and foremost, from the recognition that the perfect life doesn’t exist. We are all a little “messy”, unorganized, and sometimes required to do things that are not “ideal” to keep life moving forward. This understanding informs my integrated approach of primarily existential, experiential, and person-centered methodologies. I treat each client as an individual with their own unique set of circumstances, while considering the context of the external world.

You can’t help but ask "God! Where are you?!" You feel stuck in a cycle of repeating unhealthy patterns, in your career, in your relationships, but you can’t break free. You’re settling, but you don't know why. You even question whether you can call on God at all because you’ve been told to "just pray about it" and you will be okay. So you prayed, but you still are not okay. "Does God even hear me? See Me?" you desperately wonder as you struggle with your life and faith. You ask yourself if there is something wrong with you. You want to be freed from every barrier that is holding you back from having all you deserve. You want more.
