I specialize in working with Black, Indigenous, and POC seeking healing that honors cultural identity, ancestral lineage, and the lived realities of navigating a racialized world.
The people who find their way to me are often navigating racial trauma, intergenerational trauma, relationship conflict, depression, the transition to adulthood, identity-related distress, grief, school and work-related stress. They want clarity, connection, and a therapist who understands how trauma lives in the body and across generations. Most of all, they want to feel safe, grounded, and connected to who they are beneath survival and expectation.

New clients often say "I don't have energy", "I can't seem to stop thinking about everything", "I don't know what's wrong with me" and "I don't know what to do". What I am here to do is teach how those responses are not only "normal", but how to navigate to where they want to be with a science-based approach. My interest is working with adults and teens by providing education and solutions to barriers in their daily lives. Working in the helping field since 1996 and being exposed to many barriers my clients face, I enjoy navigating solutions to positive mental health.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or anxious about life changes? Transitions like starting college, navigating early parenthood, adjusting to an empty nest, or coping with unexpected challenges can feel stressful and uncertain. Using evidence-based therapies like CBT, ACT, solution-focused therapy, and existential approaches, I help clients manage anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, trauma, stress, and life transitions by building on existing strengths, uncovering unhelpful patterns. Therapy offers a supportive space to process emotions, explore challenges, build confidence, and find steadiness while moving forward in life.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
