Have you ever thought – what distinguishes healthy relationships that are able to thrive from unhealthy ones that tend to be full of stress? Is it self-will? Determination? As a couples and family therapist, I believe the one distinguishing factor is "attachment". Attachment is the ability to connect with others. Depending on our ability (or inability) to attach interpersonally, determines the overall satisfaction we experience within our intimate relationships. Also, having been a victim of racism, I opened this practice as a place that people of color can heal from the impact of both blatant and systemic oppression.
Marriage is on the rocks? Single and wanting to explore dating? It is never too late to learn about attachment styles – both yours and your partners! And though my love for couples runs deep, I'm equally as passionate to work with individuals who want to explore and strengthen important relationships – whether it be with a parent, boss, friend, or God.
You're not crazy or "too dependent." Therapy isn't a sign of weakness. It doesn't make you less of a person to invest into your mental well-being. You are human. With real thoughts and emotions that deserve a safe space to be explored without judgement. But rather with support, guidance and unconditional positive regard. I'd be honor to create this for you.
