Sex is usually a topic that is met with secrecy, embarrassment, shame, or judgment. Thus, I aim to create a safe, open environment to address various relational and sexual concerns (i.e., lack of intimacy, infidelity, erectile dysfunction, "excessive masturbation") with individuals of various sexual orientations, genders, ethnicities, and kinks. You should be able to have the sex you desire! I also welcome individuals who have issues related to depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, self-esteem, life transitions, employment, communication, assertiveness, and/or family dynamics.

As we address therapy goals that may involve reducing distress caused by symptoms, dealing with acute or longer term issues, or old patterns that are holding you back from growth, I listen for your voice, and seek to empower you to take ownership of your life and its direction.

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.

To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
