Would you like to change those compromising circumstances or learn to manage them more effectively? Choosing to enter therapy can be your avenue to resolving your problems and creating the life you desire. I would like to help you achieve your goals.

I am an experienced interactive attachment based therapist with a warm, respectful and down-to-earth therapeutic approach. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy and psycho-dynamic theory. I am certified in "Healing Shame" work and incorporate this treatment into my work. I offer a safe and comfortable environment.
I am an African-American person of color and appreciate and value difference. I am trained extensively in cultural diversity with experience working with the personal and social effects and implicit obstacles that differences may bring. I work efficiently with racial, gender and sexual identity, and "alternative" lifestyles.
