I'm excited that you have encountered my profile and taken an active, and courageous step in your healing journey. I bring a down-to-earth, approachable presence to therapy and place the utmost importance on fostering a warm and friendly, yet professional relationship with you. Developing a strong therapeutic alliance is the foundation that will support you as we explore pathways toward your healing, develop adaptive and functional coping skills, improve your emotional regulation, and help you experience a fulfilling life, rather than just exist.
Since there is no "one-size-fits-all" approach to therapy, I incorporate various evidence-based treatment modalities, techniques and skills that may best meet your individual needs. I have 15 years of experience collaborating with individuals presenting with various treatment needs, such as trauma, anxiety, depression, family and relationship conflict.
While I treat individuals from all socioeconomic, racial and cultural backgrounds, I have dedicated my career to providing quality therapeutic services to marginalized communities, including black single-mothers, justice-involved individuals and those that struggle with navigating the daily challenges faced by living in an urban environment.
