Something’s changed. That change can be any number of things - recent baby, newly out of or into middle school/high school, change in family dynamics, or others. But something has changed and it doesn’t feel right. You used to feel like you had it together - like you were writing your own story and happy with where it was going. But lately, it doesn’t feel that way. Lately, it feels like there’s an editor changing things in your story and it’s not working out! You feel lost, maybe depressed, anxious or angry, or maybe you’re not sure what you feel, just that something’s not right.

Are you in search of someone that is able to culturally-empathize, and have the capacity to meet you where you are in life? Often times we are unsure on next steps to take when dealing with life stressors. My core belief is that everyone possesses the resiliency needed to overcome such barriers. Face it we get in our own way sometimes! Individual therapy can help you face some of those conflicts head on. Whether it be professional, or personal struggles, it is my hope to assist you with identifying what's been holding you back. " Nothing you been through shall be wasted" T.J. Jakes

If you are considering therapy, you have taken the first step toward making a positive change. It takes courage to seek support and talking with someone can help. When we experience painful events, feel our life’s plan has been taken out of our control, and experience disconnect in our relationships, we can feel hopeless, alone and lost. I believe that, through life’s challenges, we can learn how truly strong we are.
