Many of my clients come to therapy carrying anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, burnout, identity exploration, family stress, or the deep emotional exhaustion that comes from surviving in spaces that weren't built for them.
You've spent your life being the strong one, the guarded one, the one who survives no matter what. Maybe you're exhausted from moving through a world that has never fully seen you, or from carrying the weight of environments where you didn't feel safe, affirmed, or free to just be yourself. You deserve a space where you don't have to carry that alone anymore.Hi, I'm Donita. I specialize in working with individuals from marginalized, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and Stud (Black lesbian and queer) communities who are looking for a therapy space where they can show up fully, without feeling judged, misunderstood, or pressured to shrink.

FAQ - About Couples Therapy
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
