Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, isolated, hopeless, anxious, or numb? Are you struggling to understand what you're feeling and what to do about it? Or are you and your partner struggling to connect, communicate, or rebuild trust? If you are ready to commit to your mental wellness and healing journey, take your first step today.
My strengths are helping clients achieve the clarity needed to navigate life's challenges. I specialize in working with Black couples, families, and individuals with marginalized identities who experience specific challenges and stressors. My experience in relationship health and social justice issues gives me a unique lens and approach to therapy.
I want to help you transform your thought patterns, gain new coping skills, and turn negative relationship cycles into healthier connections that leave you feeling more empowered and in tune with yourself and others.
