My ideal client may feel stuck in emotional patterns they cannot fully explain. They might struggle with anxiety, sadness, anger, people pleasing, boundary setting, or relationship challenges rooted in childhood experiences. Some are teens or college students navigating independence for the first time, while others are adults or parents wanting to heal their past so it does not repeat. As a Black woman and mother, I offer culturally sensitive care that supports emotional safety, boundary setting, and lasting healing. Their goal is to feel more confident, emotionally balanced, and connected while breaking unhealthy cycles.
I specialize in helping clients heal childhood trauma, past or ongoing, by understanding how early experiences shape emotions and relationships. With over 11 years of experience, I combine trauma focused, attachment, and narrative therapy with clear education and practical tools.
If you have been carrying emotional weight for a long time or wondering why certain patterns keep repeating, you are not alone. Healing is possible with the right support. Therapy can be a space to understand yourself more deeply, feel emotionally safe, and create meaningful change. I would be honored to support you in that process.
