I have worked with individuals of all ages—children, teens, and adults—helping them navigate a variety of life challenges. My primary goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel truly heard, valued, and understood.
While I am known for my nurturing and empathetic approach, I also take a clear, focused approach when needed to support meaningful growth and real change. An added strength of mine is my personal experience living with Type 1 diabetes, which allows me to better support clients managing autoimmune and chronic health conditions.

Helen Keller once said, “Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” This quote resonates with me because, as a therapist, I have had the privilege of walking alongside people during times when they have felt alone, vulnerable, or overwhelmed. With my help, they learn to “listen” to their emotions and gain more control. So often, when we are alone during a difficult time, our ability to see beyond such challenges becomes compromised. Our vision narrows and hope dims. But through the collaborative efforts of the client and the therapist, healing, growth, and change can happen. Hope is restored.

I specialize in working with woman; especially women of color; who appears confident but silently battles anxiety, self-doubt, and exhaustion from navigating spaces where she feels unseen. She’s weighed down by perfectionism and unresolved wounds, longing for peace and authenticity. She needs a safe, nonjudgmental space to take off the mask, tools to manage anxiety, and permission to prioritize her well-being. Her goal is to feel whole, reclaim her voice, and live unapologetically. She seeks therapy not because she’s broken, but because she’s ready to break free and thrive. Please schedule with me directly on my website.

Do you feel like you’re always holding it together for others while feeling anxious, exhausted, or emotionally drained? You may be experiencing anxiety, depression, burnout, body image concerns, or a life transition that’s left you feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from yourself. Stress may show up as constant worry, self-doubt, fatigue, or tension in your body. Many of the women I work with are used to pushing through stress, minimizing their needs, and prioritizing others. Looking for a therapist who understands how identity, culture, and lived experiences affect your mental health?

You’re the “go to” person whenever anybody needs a favor. Everybody counts on you. You make it all look so easy that no one would ever guess that sometimes you could use some support. Yes, you’ve got a lot going for you, but the truth is you’re feeling tired, angry, and stressed, and maybe even a little ashamed of these feelings because everybody thinks you have it all. Pretending that everything is “fine” is getting harder and harder, but it’s hard to ask for help. NEWS FLASH: Even Superwoman needs a break every now and then!

Christian Therapists
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
Therapists and clients don’t need to share the same belief system or background to be able to work effectively together, but a therapist whose training includes a focus on cultural competence may be better able to form a therapeutic bond with individuals from a range of backgrounds, as they will have experience in tailoring their approach to each client—and will be prepared to acknowledge and consider the effects of culture, religion, and other factors on each individual.
Why is it important to find a therapist sensitive to Christian values?
Each person brings a unique history and background to therapy, making it important to find a licensed therapist who is trained in a broad range of treatment modalities. In addition, for people who grow up in a faith tradition that strongly influences the way they conduct their everyday life, finding a therapist who understands or shares that background can ease the disclosure of sensitive information and facilitate the therapeutic process. For some clients, a Christian therapist is likely to incorporate faith-based principles into emotional healing techniques.
How do I recognize an effective Christian therapist?
Christian therapists are licensed mental health professionals—holding a master’s or doctoral degree in medicine, nursing, psychology, counseling, social work, or marriage and family therapy—who are also familiar with Christian beliefs and values. They have an understanding of the importance that Christian principles play in the lives of individuals and families, which allows them to be especially sensitive to the kinds of struggles that can affect daily functioning. Like all effective therapists, a Christian therapist will have undergone training and certification in a variety of treatment modalities that help people through crises and enable them to master the challenges of life.
Why might someone feel comfortable with a Christian therapist?
While training, qualifications, and experience are always important, research has long established that a strong alliance between client and therapist is a major contributor to therapeutic success. An alliance is likely to be strengthened with a therapist who not only is responsive to questions and concerns but also shares a client’s faith and values. Sensitivity to spiritual matters as well as to everyday struggles can provide a welcome sense of safety and contribute to the bond between client and therapist, both of which support the therapeutic process.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Christian therapists?
The directory of Christian therapists includes professionals who have shared their background in their profiles. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. The directory also shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Christian clients, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation.
