I provide individual therapy for adults, including trans and nonbinary people and the loved ones who support them. My work helps clients reconnect with themselves, set boundaries, and communicate more clearly, especially during times of identity exploration, change, or uncertainty.
Clients often feel overextended or unsure how to move forward. I support adults who are ready to break old patterns, and relate more authentically. I help loved ones of trans and nonbinary people support their understanding of gender identity and the patterns, stressors, and histories that shape how they show up in relationships.
As a Black nonbinary therapist, I bring lived experience, clinical training, and deep respect to this work. My approach is relational, grounded, and identity-affirming. I offer a space where you can reflect, unlearn, and practice showing up with more clarity and care without judgment or shame. If this resonates with you schedule your free consultation today.
