I work well with a client who has experienced some type of sexual, psychological, or religious trauma in their lives. In my sessions with this client, first I assess the level of trauma, help the client to build rapport with me, as well as trust. Secondly, I work to rebuild the client's life in terms of symptom management. Thirdly, the client and I form a partnership to improve relationship skills, thereby enabling the client to re-establish a sense of community. Finally, I value helping the client to rebalance his or her life in mind, body, and spirit.

As a licensed clinician of 24 years and uppermost in my treatment is concern for my clients well being, their trust in me, and the use of my expertise in helping them become a well functioning individual. The issue of confidentiality is of prime importance in working with people. My motto is, 'the client first', and I work at their pace and use their needs to mutually assess, explore and cultivate treatment goals and options. On an as need basis I will contact other family members to carefully understand the family system and know the family world of the client.

My approach to treatment is collaborative; I believe people are experts on themselves, and my role is to create a healing space that allows you to develop the tools needed to cultivate adequate coping resources. I emphasize building healthy relationships with the self, and others as a path to wellness. My style strikes a balance between providing empathy, and warmth when needed, and accountability and structure when appropriate. As a Black woman , I am also committed to social justice, and incorporate multicultural theory, social context, and power dynamics into my conceptualization, and interventions. I look forward to our work.

My passion is to help people navigate life's challenges in a safe and warm environment. My style is to engage and interact with my clients in a respectful, non-judgemental, supportive and positive manner. Together we work on improving communication, developing strategies for clients who face transitions and supportive tools for those who experiene illness or losses. We all face changes - in our roles, relationships, our health or emotional well being. Adapting to these changes can be challanging yet with appropriate support - there is always opportunity for growth. I would like to be there for you.

Whether struggling with anger, depression, anxiety, disordered eating, body image, or low self esteem or facing problems at school, work or home, I can help you develop your core strength to more effectively deal with life's challenges. When fixing a car, you want a top mechanic with the right set of tools to diagnose the problem and make the repairs. Why not treat yourself as well?

Trauma, PTSD, Depression, Postpartum Depression, Panic Disorder, Anxiety, ADHD, Relationship struggles, Divorce, Parenting, and Childhood Behavior Problems. I have seen a wide range of clients struggling with many of lifes challenges. I approach their concerns individually with warmth, knowledge, and compassion. Initially, I started out as a child therapist but then went on to study 5 years of post graduate work in adult psychoanalysis. Today I work with all populations. More recently I have been focusing my studies and practice on the trauma of living through a pandemic.

My approach to therapy is based on creating a strong relationship with my clients: a place where they feel safe to explore their lives . I always work collaboratively with my clients to find what techniques and therapeutic environment they need to grow, and heal. I believe that having an empathic, open, and caring therapist is where successful therapy begins. I place a strong emphasis on making my clients feel comfortable, welcome, and safe. I do not believe that one approach in therapy will work for everyone.

In the over twenty years that I have been in the clinical practice of psychotherapy, I remain amazed by the tenacity and resilience of the human spirit. I respect the human capacity to survive and adapt to challenges - big and small, acute and chronic - but also the ability to make change given the right circumstances. It has been an honor to witness and be part of many individuals’ journeys to a better and more satisfying life using psychotherapy. Sometimes peoples’ ability to change has seemed miraculous. Through my training, many modalities have been embedded into my practice including cognitive-behavioral techniques.
