Many people come to therapy feeling stuck — overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, or carrying experiences that still affect them long after they’re over.

I work with clients who want relief, clarity, and practical support so they can feel more grounded, confident, and in control of their lives.

Serving: KS, MO & FL clients. I am an African-American clinician whose work is deeply rooted in serving Black and Brown communities, as well as individuals who live in close proximity to or are shaped by these cultural realities. I approach therapy with the understanding that our psychological wounds are not created in a vacuum. Historical trauma, systemic oppression, cultural expectations, masculinity norms, faith traditions, and survival strategies all shape how distress shows up in our lives. These factors make our experiences meaningfully different from those of the general population—and they deserve to be understood as such.

My ideal client is a person carrying a lot on their shoulders emotionally, mentally, or within thier relationships. They may feel anxious, sad, or unsure of herself, often losing pieces of who they are while trying to be everything for everyone. They’re thoughtful and self-aware, yet far too hard on themselves. They want clarity, peace, and confidence, along with a space where they can be open, supported, and free from judgment. Ultimately, they want to heal, rediscover themselves, and create a life that feels grounded and aligned.
