My clinical focus is PTSD, developmental trauma and addictive disorders. I combine traditional "talk" therapy with QEEG-informed Neurofeedback and EMDR, where appropriate. This offers you the best chance of healing past emotional wounds, alleviating symptoms, and living more fully in the present. The subtle, transformative power of Neurofeedback helps many clients resolve the traumatic stress, fear and anxiety that often underly behavioral and addictive disorders. EMDR is another powerful tool that can help resolve emotional trauma, improve functioning, and help you become more present-focused.

I love working with couples, families, and individuals who want to learn to advocate for and express their needs, improve their relationships, decrease anxiety/stress, and maintain accountability. Additionally, I enjoy helping clients practice patience and self-kindness. Humans are complex, and we can't rush the process of discovering, uncovering, unlearning, and relearning.

As a first-generation, Caribbean-American, and Black woman I understand the importance of offering individualized and culturally-sensitive therapy. Our stories are created by a complex mixture of cultural, economic, racial, ethnic, and sexual relationships with ourselves and the world. Our work in therapy may include exploring these relationships and acknowledging the difficulties of balancing external conditions with personal needs. We will also take a look at the patterns that have developed based on past experiences, and how these experiences are informing the present.

In therapy, it is important to create a space where you feel truly heard and understood. Many individuals find that traditional therapy often leads to surface-level conversation or venting, without addressing the deeper issues at the core of their struggles. Therapy is not just about expressing distress—it’s about exploring the underlying psychological patterns that shape emotions and behaviors. These patterns, often formed through past experiences and trauma, influence how we see ourselves and interact with the world. In session, I create a collaborative, safe environment to uncover core issues limiting your potential.
