Life can be messy at times. We can get overwhelmed by everyday events, unexpected surprises-both good and not so good- and the expectations of others around us. In some cases, we're still dealing with the past and can't even begin to solve today's issues.

Currently accepting new clients! Life happens to everyone. Some of us are more equipped to process these experiences, and others may need support. Therapy is needed when symptoms such as sleep disturbance, lack of motivation, anxiety or depression become more than we know how to tolerate and begin to interfere with functioning and relationships.

Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, MHA, LMHC, LPC, LCPC
Overland Park, KS 66211
Serving: KS, MO & FL clients. I am an African-American clinician whose work is deeply rooted in serving Black and Brown communities, as well as individuals who live in close proximity to or are shaped by these cultural realities. I approach therapy with the understanding that our psychological wounds are not created in a vacuum. Historical trauma, systemic oppression, cultural expectations, masculinity norms, faith traditions, and survival strategies all shape how distress shows up in our lives. These factors make our experiences meaningfully different from those of the general population—and they deserve to be understood as such.
