There are times in our lives when we may feel as though we are just going through the motions. Past experiences, perhaps dating back to childhood, could show up in a variety of ways in your adult life. Sometimes you may realize that there could be a connection between your past affecting the present but you are not quite sure how. You may be experiencing a variety of overwhelming emotions, some of which could be contributing to anxiety, depression or showing up in your interpersonal relationships. This may have created the potential opportunity for you to begin your healing process. It is my intention to assist you in this journey.
I offer a holistic psychotherapeutic approach to healing that encompasses a combination of mind, body, and soul work. I combine traditional psychotherapy with heart centered practices that include inner child healing, astrology with a culturally affirming approach. Together, we can discuss and collaborate to discover which modalities would work best for you.
We all deserve to be seen and heard. I feel privileged in helping and empowering others to heal, grow and transform. If we both feel it is a good fit, let's make that shift together. I look forward to being a part of your healing process. My intention is to provide an environment for Black, Latine and BIPOC people to begin to heal.
