Are you a high achieving African American woman who has found yourself desiring to: heal improve your boundaries, communication, or have more clarity about the decisions you need to make in life (Personal & Professional)? You’re tired of being the strong one and you’re also at a place in life where you want to be authentically you. You’re ready to experience the things in life you consider luxury. You're ready to change but you're unsure about the unknown. And the unknown brings fear because that means you don't have control. You're ready to ditch the plan that you have followed but no longer makes you happy.

I work with individuals (13 yrs & up), adults, & couples, holistically, in the areas of anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, divorce, inner child healing, self-empowerment, trauma, and spirituality.
Hello there! I work with clients who are ready to look beneath the surface—those who sense there’s more to them than what’s currently accessible. Much of my work is rooted in Imago RT, which means we often explore how early relationships and caregiving experiences continue to shape emotional patterns, attachment, and self-connection today.
Nature is an essential part of my counseling. I invite clients to notice how human experiences mirror natural cycles—growth, rest, loss, renewal—and how reconnecting to these rhythms can bring clarity, self-compassion, and regulation. I guide you to be nervous-system-informed and body-aware.

Somewhere along the way, you stopped trusting yourself. You began questioning your feelings, your needs, and your worth. Maybe trauma, childhood wounds, an emotionally abusive or narcissistic relationship, or religious trauma taught you to do exactly that. On the outside, you may look like you're holding it together, but inside you're exhausted from surviving. If you're longing for peace, clarity, and a deeper connection with yourself, you're in the right place.

I work with adults navigating complex PTSD, attachment wounds, and chronic dysregulation.
My ideal client is someone who’s tired of just “holding it all together.” On the outside, they may appear high-functioning, successful, reliable, strong, but inside, they feel disconnected, anxious, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Many come to me navigating trauma, codependency, burnout, or the deep ache of unmet intimacy. They’re not looking for a quick fix. They want real healing. They want to feel safe in their body again, to reclaim their voice, to stop shrinking or performing for others. They’re longing to access more aliveness, more joy, more truth, more freedom in how they move through the world.
