You are not alone as we partner together to explore, uncover and remove the obstacles that prevent you from becoming your best self and having the quality of life you long for. Using a psychodynamic framework to engage you, build hope, and establish a healing relationship, I specialize in dealing with the cumulative life stresses, traumas, griefs and losses that insidiously sabotage your best efforts, deplete your energy, tempt you into addictions to numb and avoid the pain life has brought you, or turn your long suffering into despair and depression.

I see my role as a counselor is one of an assistant or facilitator. I believe we all have the ability to help ourselves but we sometimes need a little help. As we go about our daily lives, we encounter stress which can affect us in different ways; showing up as depression, anxiety, health problems, or relationship problems. Sometimes we need someone to listen and give us a different perspective on our problems and insight as to how to deal effectively with them. I am familiar with cognitive-behavioral techniques and incorporate family systems and personality theories as needed.

Congratulations to you for making this first step. I know this isn't the most exciting thing you could be doing, scanning through therapist after therapist, and finding the "perfect fit" is hard. If you're looking for somebody to make you feel like yourself again, or maybe a new version of yourself, you've found her. Whether it be working through depression & anxiety, healing from your past or simply those overwhelming running thoughts that don't seem to stop, I can do my best to help, and if your lucky, maybe share a few laughs along the way too.

Life has a way of taking many twists and turns. The path forward is not always clear. There are times when we find ourselves feeling alone, stuck, overwhelmed, confused, numb. Asking for help is often difficult. It takes strength, courage and a willingness to risk trusting another person.

Do you struggle with depression, anxiety, grief, or just managing the daily grind? Are you finding it hard to manage your emotions, or do you just feel like you are lost? Maybe you feel exhausted at the end of a long day or are constantly feeling overwhelmed by life and it is hard to get started on the things you need to do. Maybe you are sick of living up to the standards of society or of someone else. Sometimes it seems just getting through the day is a triumph (and maybe it is).

Children express themselves in a different language therefore I use other means of expression such as play therapy, artistic expression, and family focused approaches in my work with children.
We have other clinicians at Sankofa Family Counseling who are accepting new clients. Being here, indicates that you are committed to helping yourself, or a loved one. I work with children and adults to sort through past and current challenges. I help my clients integrate these experiences so that they are manageable. My approaches and insights are adaptable for the age, cultural, and spiritual identity of the person or "persons" sitting in front of me.

In addition to being a clinical social worker, I am also a Registered Play Therapist and have extensive training in providing Infant/Child-Parent Psychotheray.
Available before 2pm only- Reaching out for support can be hard, but you are not alone. Everyone has experienced their own life journey involving grief/loss, relational ruptures, parenting struggles or trauma. Sometimes this journey can leave adults in a place where it is hard to find the motivation to complete everyday tasks, manage life stress or have patience with our loved ones. This can be true for children too, which may cause them to struggle in school, have emotional outbursts or display signs of anxiety. No matter what is bringing you, your child, or family to this moment in time, I am honored to be a part of your journey.
