Do you find yourself frustrated with your partner, no matter what you do? You are a high performing, successful professional, but you still find yourself feeling stressed and doing most of the labor at home, while your partner continues to barely function in their own life. (and just forget about the needs of your household or relationship!) You need help, and you know podcasts and self help books aren’t going to cut it. You need someone to guide you and tell you what you might be missing. I want to be that person for you.

Accepting new clients for the winter/new year season! Starting therapy can be overwhelming and is often the first time you are talking to someone you don't know about private experiences and feelings. My priority is providing clients a safe, nonjudgmental space to be their most authentic selves. I strive to create this by helping explore difficult emotions, process negative thought patterns, identify and build on strengths, and stay most centered and balanced during life transitions and adjustments.

Welcome! Life brings moments of joy, periods of challenge, and countless opportunities for growth. I believe healing begins when we feel seen, understood, and safe enough to explore the parts of ourselves we often keep quietly inside. My approach centers on building a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship where you can show up exactly as you are—without judgment or pressure. In our work together, we’ll explore the experiences and beliefs that have shaped you while identifying areas for growth, healing, and renewed confidence.

Clinical experiences and life experiences continue to teach me that each of us has a unique experience of being human—Each of us lives a life of depth, complexity, relationships, and hardships. In my private practice, I work with adults of various ages. I frequently work with people needing help with significant life changes (i.e., changes in relationship/marital status, geographical moves, career changes, having children, beginning college, retirement, etc.), anxiety and stress, depression, social difficulties, and family troubles.

It takes incredible bravery and vulnerability to ask for help and share deep fears, past traumas, or deep insecurities with a stranger. Just stepping foot in a therapy office or jumping on a video call for a therapy session is a victory worth celebrating. I tell my clients often how proud of them I am for showing up each week and doing the work because it is NOT easy. My goal is to meet clients where they are at from the onset, tailoring treatment to best suit their evolving needs. I strive to provide a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to utilize their values as the GPS within our therapeutic work.

As a zillennial (member of both Millennials and Gen Z) Black woman, I love working with women, nonbinary femmes, and girls of color ages 16-35. I know too well the pressures that come with being high-achieving, having marginalized identities, and simply existing in our bodies as people of color. Though each client has unique goals for their therapy journey, I believe that everyone deserves at least one space where they can fully be themselves. I feel most alive when working with clients who hold these identities and are navigating issues of anxiety, self-esteem, Gifted Kid Burnout, relationship challenges, or stress.
