You’re doing the hard work of seeking out therapy in 2025, and that’s truly commendable. The past few years may have been the catalyst for you to realize that now is the perfect time to enhance your mood, reduce stress, and improve your relationships. Therapy can be the first step in identifying goals and addressing needs that may have been neglected during the pandemic and possibly throughout your life. Are you living your best possible life? If so, maybe there are a few small things that need minor adjustments. If not, let’s start this journey together towards the best days of your life.
I’m an experienced Black mental health clinician with over a decade of experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, couples, parents, and families, including resource (foster) parents. I have a special passion for working with athletes, helping them improve their mental health and seeing themselves beyond the sport they play.
My approach is straightforward and practical, using a trauma-informed framework and a mix of therapeutic techniques, all delivered in a conversational style. Let’s collaborate together. Thank you for considering me as you start or continue your therapeutic journey. Please reach out directly if this aligns with your personal desires.
