Life can bring about many obstacles - whether stressors or a medical condition - and a therapist can facilitate change or healing. I specialize in providing psychotherapy to individuals experiencing adjustment issues to a medical condition or stressor, anxiety, depression, trauma, or a spiritual crisis. If you have cognitive difficulties, I provide cognitive rehabilitation and executive skills coaching to strengthen your mental abilities to engage in home and work. At times, neurological injury brings behavioral changes. We can jointly develop a behavioral plan to manage behaviors to improve relationships and ensure safety.

Sometimes it feels like your love of food and your hate for parts of your body are locked in constant battle. You got drafted into a war you didn't ask for. All you want is peace, or at least diplomacy. Somewhere along the way your stress focused in on eating, and now you feel stuck. Anxiety and depression have taken over; the enemy is winning. I've been there, and I'm here to help you negotiate the end of that war going on inside. Lets get to work on your relationship with yourself. After all, you are one of the most important people in your life!

Are you struggling with your mental health and/or substance misuse which is negatively impacting your life? Are you in early recovery and seeking support to stay sober, or are you a family member who needs help navigating this treacherous journey? There are times we all face the storms of life and need extra support to cope more effectively. Many people suffer with grief, traumatic experiences, emotional pain of the past, and ways of thinking which lead to immense suffering, self-sabotaging behaviors, and unfulfilling relationships.

I assist people who are experiencing personal and relationship problems, those who are chronic worriers, withdraw and avoid too much or are excessively sad and depressed. I also counsel those whose lives are shattered by severe trauma, loss, marital conflict, divorce, aging, and delusional thinking/psychosis. I apply theory, methods, and approaches that work best with the unique needs and personality of the person, couple, or family I'm counseling.

I am committed to helping children and adults overcome stress and anxiety and live their best lives. This includes coping with fear and panic, social anxiety, chronic worries, obsessive thinking, and compulsive habits. We all experience stress and distressing thoughts. It is easy to feel stuck and not know how to move forward. Therapy can help you express your feelings, give you strategies to cope with intense emotions, improve relationships, and reduce the hold anxiety has over you. I would love to walk through this process with you and/or your child.

The boldest thing you can do is embrace your story. It is in the choice to embrace that you discover your strengths, weaknesses, and quirks that make you uniquely you. As a free-spirited, Southern-raised Black woman, I understand that the journey is not always the prettiest. There are some thorns and pricks, but even in those moments, there is discovery. And that, my dear, is a beautiful thing. The thorns and pricks may cause some depression, anxiety, and negative emotions which can make the journey seem unbearable. So know this: I Got You and you are HEALED.

You want to feel better and you don't know where to start. You feel afraid, angry, overwhelmed, lost, and, depressed most of the time. Maybe your marriage is unfulfilling, your teenagers and kids drive you crazy, or you can't even name what it is that feels so awful. You don't know how to show up, or how to fix things, and you are tired yet, the idea of contacting a therapist might be terrifying. I understand that it can be hard to seek help, but it might change your life.

"Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional." ~Haruki Murakami.. Interpretations of events throughout our lives plays a fundamental role in our level of satisfaction in life. Understanding perspective, which shapes our view of the world, is essential in the change process. Because of this understanding I use an eclectic approach to counseling with an emphasis on Cognitive Restructuring to help my clients navigate through life's ups and downs. Working in several different areas of mental health including community mental health, substance abuse, and home- based family counseling has given me the opportunity to work with individuals and families from diverse populations and socioeconomic statuses.

I believe in self-determination (choice) and the natural process of growth. I will, therefore, assist your growth/change process by providing you with education, support and honest feedback. Because I prefer to examine issues from a holistic perspective, I will discuss the integration of your strengths as they relate to the five life domains: emotional, mental, physical, relational and spiritual.

I’m committed to providing my full attention and support in helping people work toward positive changes that align with their own values and goals. I work with adults and adolescents, and I take an eclectic and holistic approach to help with concerns that may include mental health, stress, trauma, grief, addiction, relationships, or adjusting to life changes. This may be a matter of short-term counseling to strengthen coping skills or overcome a specific challenge, or more in-depth therapy to better understand and resolve deeper patterns and issues.

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.
