As a Black, queer, trans person, I intimately understand how those with marginalized identities are often silenced and made to feel invisible. In my practice, I prioritize creating a space where your voice is centered and valued. I believe that true healing and growth come when we reconnect with ourselves and with others in meaningful ways, and I strive to create an environment where you can fully show up as yourself.

Welcome! I'm glad you found your way here. Reaching out can be difficult. Often filled with anxiety, fear, and self-doubt. I've been there. Along the way, I've experienced how essential it is to talk with someone who will listen deeply, respond compassionately, and support journeys of healing in creative and thoughtful ways. Whether you're facing a point of challenge, a period of crisis, or a chronic issue, I welcome the opportunity to bring my experience and training alongside your experience, values, and goals. Together, we can make something decent of this strange, messy, and perhaps even beautiful world.

Yes, it is crazy “out there” and sometimes the “crazy” within makes it difficult to discern where one ends and the other begins. “It’s overwhelming, I don’t know why…It wasn’t always like this.” “I find myself frozen in the middle of it all wondering where I fit in, what’s it all about?” “Why am I here?” “I don’t know who I am.” Let’s talk…using a variety of therapeutic approaches together we can move through and process the events, situations, experiences, etc. that have you immobilized. I believe in treating the whole person and employing different therapeutic modalities based on what aligns with you and your needs.

I am a relational psychotherapist, which means that I believe relationships (with family, friends, coworkers, higher powers, our relationship with our self, etc.) often play a role in our suffering and, yet, also play a crucial role in our healing. Relatedly, the relationship between the therapist and client is of utmost importance and requires trust and authenticity for both parties involved. In my work with clients, I use a variety of individualized, eclectic approaches to help each person meet their goals and needs. My therapeutic style is warm, direct, empowering, and collaborative.

My name is Dakota and I provide teletherapy in both the states of Georgia and Florida -- Finding our way through life’s journey can become overwhelming at times. We may reach stages where we feel out-of-touch, out-of-place, and out-of-sync. One method of addressing these bumps on our path is recalibrating how we understand ourselves and others. Learning new ways of handling and adapting to all of life’s changes can be revitalizing. I would be excited to be there with you on your path as a co-journeyer and as a provider of objective, researched-based counseling.

Something is hanging over your head: a conversation, a meeting, a task, an interaction, or an activity. You know you HAVE to do it, but HOW… and WHEN? Figuring out details like that has always been a bit of a nightmare. It feels impossible to get it all RIGHT. And when things go wrong, it feels like the end of the world. Communication and relationships are particularly hard. You know what you want to say and do, but it never quite comes out right. It’s just one misunderstanding after another. So, you tiptoe around and eek through life, worried about the next thing you’ll mess up or whom you’ll make mad. This is no way to live.
