As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life

Are you feeling ready to explore a new way of viewing the world, your relationships, and yourself? I work with people who have distressing experiences, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma that has altered how they view their lives. It can become so overwhelming for some to the point where they may observe avoiding experiences they previously enjoyed, or feel as if they are surviving day to day. My perspective is to help each person reach their goals, they need a safe and open environment. I provide healthy coping skills to help with the day to day tasks, while also processing those distressing experiences when ready.

Hi, I'm glad you're here! I understand how overwhelming it can be to find the right therapist—not just someone who can address your specific concerns, but someone who feels like the right fit. I am not cookie cutter, and I tailor treatment to your unique needs, helping us explore the best path forward together. You are not a problem to be 'fixed'; instead, I’m here to help you identify what truly matters to you, work toward your goals, and uncover any roadblocks that may be in your way. My clients often are coming to me with deep rooted negative beliefs about themselves, basically that inner critic” that is making a lot of noise!

We created Therapy for Black Women to address the unique challenges experienced solely by Black women. For we are all too familiar with the "Angry Black Woman" and equally as toxic, "Strong Black Woman" tropes. These archetypes are incessantly perpetuated in the media and impact our relationship with vulnerability; thus, the capacity to be fully realized humans. Furthermore, Therapy for Black Women helps to mitigate the continued exploitation of Black women in search of licensed clinicians who have practical knowledge surrounding what it is to be a Black Women.

Therapy is for everyone. Being a kid is a hard job and being a parent isn't easy either. It can be lonely, isolating and overwhelming when you or your child is struggling. We aren't meant to struggle alone. My passion is helping kids, adolescents, and their families learn how to navigate big feelings, stress and overwhelm. I have dedicated my career to supporting children and parents in their journey toward social and emotional well-being. Do you need help understanding the IEP, 504, or gifted process at school? During my 15 years as a school counselor I helped many families walk through these steps.
