Welcome to the change you have been looking for! The focus of my practice is to help you become the change you want. "My kids don't listen" "I'm depressed", "this is not where I suppose to be in my life", "I'm hurting", confused and I don't know what to do". These are the thoughts, feelings and emotions that run through our heads every day. When things go wrong we look for something or someone to change...we look at the people around us to change, but they don't! The change comes from you!

As a neurodivergent African American male diagnosed in adulthood, I understand the unique and challenging journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance.
My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe, inclusive, and compassionate space for neurodiverse adults on their journey towards self-discovery, self-acceptance and holistic well-being. I aim to provide clarity to help clients achieve the life they envision for themselves. I believe it is essential to create a nurturing space where clients are encouraged to explore their emotions and experiences at their own pace.

There's a joke that goes like this: a client was 10 minutes late for a session. When she arrived, she profusely apologized for being late. Maintaining poise, the therapist responded, "No problem. You're only late for your first session." Oftentimes I see clients who probably should have come in 2 years earlier than they did. During that time, they slog it though days and nights where getting out of bed is an achievement. My view is if you're already in pain, it's time to cash it in and get something for it. I've been there myself and have benefitted from the techniques that you and I will do together.

My ideal client is eager to explore their emotions and experiences in a supportive environment. They might be dealing with anxiety, depression, self-esteem problems, or the aftermath of trauma. These clients need a safe space to express themselves, receive active listening, and develop effective coping strategies. For those who have experienced trauma, my approach is tailored to their unique needs. I prioritize creating a trusting relationship where clients feel secure enough to share their experiences. Using TFCBT interventions, I help them process and integrate their experiences to reduce distress and promote healing.

You cannot believe that someone you love, someone you trust, some you give your all to would cause you so much pain. You continue to play over and over again different scenarios of where the relationship went wrong. You start thinking about how stupid you were for all the things you did to keep the relationship. I hate to admit it, but I am glad to say, I understand you. Relationships, especially ones that are meaningful to you, will leave you crushed. Especially when trust has been broken.

No matter your past or present, your haves or have nots, life can be difficult. I believe that people want and need to be understood – to feel validated and acknowledged in the midst of their troubles. Without these moments of understanding, life can feel mundane, lonely, or deeply confusing. At the most troubling times when stress, depression, or relationships overwhelm, change can seem impossible. Yet change is made possible through a trusting therapeutic relationship and a careful understanding of oneself and others.

Male Therapists

As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?

There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.

How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?

Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.

Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?

Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.

Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?

Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
