In my counseling practice, I prioritize creating a safe, empathic, and non-judgmental space for healing. By fostering such an environment, I believe clients feel safe to explore and tap into their inherent potential for leading meaningful lives. Having studied Ayurvedic wellness at the Tanman Ayurvedic Research Centre in India, I take a holistic approach to mental health, recognizing the interconnectedness of mind, body, emotion, and spirit. I blend this with evidence-based Western practices to comprehensively support my clients. This integration leads to mental wellness and growth.

Are you feeling down? Nervous about performing your best at work? Could your relationships be better? Well, 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 life can be hard and the road to success can be lonely- especially in settings that lack diversity. This is further complicated when asking for help is not ok, frowned upon, and it’s hard to trust. Hesitation or unwarranted self-appraisal can result when, instead, you should be celebrating your accomplishments, your strength, your undying resiliency!

I love words and believe that healing is often found when we have space to tell our stories—to make sense of what we have lived, of who we are, and of where we hope to go. I specialize in walking with people who have experienced trauma and struggle to understand how to hold that trauma as a part of their story. I work well with clients who have experienced structural violence, including but not limited to sexual violence, relational violence, religious trauma, homophobia, fatphobia, racism, medical trauma, & complex trauma. I also work well with high achievers, college students, artists, writers, performers, thinkers, & creatives.

What would it be like to live courageously? I work with adults and teens as they figure out how to get unstuck. That stuck place may be an addiction, a divorce, a broken parent-child relationship, depression, ADHD, anxiety, or grief.

My clients say I have a unique joy that gives them hope and helps them find direction.

Navigating life’s challenges can feel like carrying an invisible weight—one that comes with unique pressures, expectations, and experiences that others may not always understand. Worry and self-doubt can feel never-ending, leaving you stuck, exhausted, or disconnected from yourself. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, know that you don’t have to go through it alone. My approach is centered on creating a space where you feel seen, understood, and supported in your healing journey.
