Has trauma, anxiety, or depression overtaken your life? Asking for help takes a tremendous amount of courage. Whether you are a child or an adult, we will all need help at some point in our lives. One of my favorite quotes is “The greatest source of human suffering is the lies we tell ourselves”. Are you telling yourself that you are alone, losing control, or going crazy? Your problems are normal. And help is possible.

I know from personal experience the desire to see change in life but not knowing where to start. Working with a mental health professional was incredibly valuable in helping me make the necessary changes to reach my goals. After achieving personal success, I knew I wanted to do the same for others. My holistic approach to counseling is based on evidence-based practice, clinical training, years of experience in community mental health, human psychology research, and my own personal experiences. Together we will explore different areas of life including emotions, thought patterns, habits, relationships, work, play, and more.

Check out our website for more details! I became a therapist because of a void that has existed for decades. A void that allowed black and brown people to be left to find sometimes inadequate ways of dealing with real mental health issues. As you search you will find very few people that look like me that are in profession of mental health. This is unfortunate. Although my caseload is hugely diverse, what comforts my clients is I represent what in my field is lacking...a representative from a disenfranchised group of people helping to build up the individual, repairing relationships and making families whole.

I feel called to come alongside individuals wounded by painful life experiences (abuse, trauma, attachment injury) as well as individuals navigating life transitions that most, if not all, of us walk through (adulthood, marriage, illness, divorce, death. etc). I consider the healing process to be both sacred and deeply personal, so I work very hard to honor and appreciate the need to "tailor" individual's needs, abilities, and treatment objectives to their healing journey.

Taking care of your mental health is just as important as taking care of your physical health! Life can be stressful, unpredictable, chaotic, frustrating, and constantly throwing us curve balls. Sometimes we just need help processing our thoughts and feelings or making important life decisions. Other times, we may be struggling with mental illness, substance use, grief and loss, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, identity issues or other serious problems that are keeping us from living a happy and productive life. During these times, reaching out for help may feel scary or embarrassing.
