Compassion. Collaboration. Change. Seeking help takes courage, and choosing a therapist can be an empowering, but intimidating first step. I strive to cultivate a meaningful relationship with each of my clients, so it can feel safe to explore your story. Together we look for themes and identify next right steps. I specialize in helping clients who struggle with the effects of childhood and complex trauma, addiction, marital and intimacy issues, life transitions, boundary difficulties, and self-esteem. I enjoy working with men and women of all ages and stages of life who want to improve their relationships with themselves and others.

I'll work with you to collaboratively identify the best approach and tools for what you are experiencing at this particular moment. We'll look at your circumstances and goals to get a shared idea about our direction. We'll get curious about your patterns of thought, behavior, and beliefs. We'll build on your strengths. We'll discover which tools help you feel more resilient, empowered, and able to navigate strong emotions. This will prepare you to process the experiences that are often at the core of our adaptive strategies (i.e., what frequently gets labeled as "symptoms") allowing you to identify new choices that nourish you.

Welcome to your new beginning. I hope this page can be a much needed break for you in your journey to finding the right fit. My practice, Moon Tide Counseling, is centered on creating wholistic wellness for adults in various stages of life. Are you feeling out of balance? Have you recently been experiencing the effects of repressed emotions? Do you feel you could manage your stress, anxiety, or depression better? Maybe you’re tired of old trauma hindering your relationship with yourself and others. If the answer is yes to any of these questions, you are in capable hands.

Some stories are just too hard for us to tell on our own and some will cause us pain just because we are still stuck in the middle of it. Stories can cause us to feel anxiety, stress, depression, confusion, and anger. They can even cause us to do things that we know are not helpful, even harmful, to cope with the negative feelings. I have a passion for people's stories and walking with people through the painful but enriching process of getting unstuck. Wherever you find yourself, you are welcome to come exactly as you are.

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here. I believe in providing a safe space for my clients to navigate their mental health and wellness journey. I strive to empower clients to gain insight and awareness around their emotions, behaviors, and relational patterns. I guide clients in exploring a deeper understanding of the root of their issues. I operate from a person-centered orientation, expressing empathy and unconditional positive regard for my clients. I view clients through a trauma-informed and multicultural lens. I specialize in working with clients who experience anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, and PTSD.

I assist individuals (adults and adolescents) & people in relationships with embracing and navigating their emotions in a society that often stigmatizes such expressions. My approach is particularly beneficial for those with non-conforming identities, including BIPOC, LGBTQ+, kink, and poly communities. Additionally, I offer support to Black people navigating strained parental relationships, people of Caribbean descent, people with ADHD, and those who have been labeled or feel 'too sensitive.' My mission is to foster self-acceptance and equip clients with the skills to navigate their identities amidst societal expectations.

Throughout therapy process I assist my clients in overcoming their difficulties in life, reaching their full potential, learning to accept themselves, and become authentic. My therapeutic style is a warm, unconditionally accepting, and supportive engagement with each individual on the thrilling journey to better understand who he/she really is, processing and letting go of the burdens carried from the past, identifying one's strengths, bolstering personal growth and change.

Life can take unexpected turns, revealing the lasting impact of our experiences. As a trauma-informed therapist, I specialize in helping individuals, families, and couples navigate through the intricacies of complex trauma, chronic pain/illness, grief, and relationship struggles. Whether it's untangling the web of trauma survival or finding a way through the fog of grief, I'm here to walk alongside you. My expertise lies in creating a safe space where you can comfortably explore your story and cultivate resilience to actively engage in and savor life again.

The journey to wholeness and intimacy is not always an easy path but it is one that can rebuild confidence, repair trust and intimacy, and create transformational growth. Having someone who is compassionate, affirming, and experienced in healing, restoration, and transformation can lead to healing, deeper intimacy, and authentic self and relationships.

Do you feel like something is wrong but you can't quite figure out what it is? Like everyone else seems to have it together but you don't know how they do it? Does your to-do list never seem to end, and suddenly there's no time left for the things that bring you joy, let alone self-care? Maybe you're constantly fighting a feeling that you're not enough. Or certain patterns from the past keep inexplicably repeating themselves in the present. Maybe your inner child is yelling for help but you're not sure how to help them. These things can leave you feeling even more overwhelmed, frazzled, stressed, burned out, or uncertain.

When life becomes overwhelming or filled with uncertainty, we all deserve a space to talk with someone who will not judge or shame us but who will walk alongside us as we figure it out. If you find yourself in a place of feeling stuck, whether in relationship patterns, cycles of anxiety and depression, or difficulties with processing past experiences, I would be honored to walk alongside you as we figure things out together, as I firmly believe that we are not meant to walk through life alone.

Talking to a perfect stranger about personal things doesn't exactly make a person feel warm and fuzzy. Realistically though, life is just hard! Sometimes we just need to share our thoughts with someone who can be trusted not to judge how life's toughest blows may have affected us. Sometimes we just need to be able to talk honestly about things we wouldn't share with just anyone. This doesn't make us broken, it makes us 'Human.'

Hey, I’m glad you made it here! Have you ever experienced events in your life that have been overwhelming, hard to process, or difficult to move on from? Trauma is a spectrum, most people have experienced some degree of it in their life. With this, other issues like depression, anxiety, struggles with emotions, negative thoughts, and others—often develop as a result. They can disrupt daily life and disconnect us from ourselves and others. My goal is to empower, teach skills, and provide resources and insight to help you create more space, clarity, confidence, and freedom from the past so that you can experience the life you want.

Maybe, on paper, you’re successful, well-accomplished, and admired, but others don’t see that you are often overwhelmed with imposter syndrome and a general feeling of not being good enough. It could be that you desire healthy relationships, but can’t quite figure out what’s blocking you from having the emotional intimacy that you desire. Perhaps you recognize patterns of trauma in your family and you’re ready to interrupt the patterns. Or, your life may not be in complete crisis, but you want to be sure that you are addressing areas that may be preventing you from living your life to the fullest.

Stress, anxiety and relationship challenges can be overwhelming. Sometimes it feels like it's too much to face on your own. Finding the right counselor with whom you feel connected to is really important. You want to feel comfortable with your therapist and confident in their ability to help you. With over 20 years counseling people of all ages and my tool-box of therapeutic resources and techniques, you can experience relief from stress and anxiety and have hope for better days ahead. And if after we meet if it feels I'm not the right therapist for you, I'll help you find the one that is.

I am excited to connect with people who find themselves ready for a change, but perhaps unsure of how to make that happen for themselves. I enjoy helping people explore all parts of their life to help make sense of present situations and to make a plan for a healthier future. This can look like discussing nutrition, exercise, emotional intelligence, past relationships and family dynamics, as well as a myriad of other topics. I prioritize a holistic approach for not only my clients, but for my own life as well and have personally experienced healthy change from this perspective.

We all want to create lives that are joyful, deeply satisfying, and connected to others. Yet no one goes through this world unscathed by the difficult people, circumstances, and experiences we all encounter along the way. To survive, we generally organize our lives around 2 things – how we manage our pain and how we manage our relationships. And sometimes those survival strategies, intended at one point to protect us, end up keeping us from the very things we long for. Or we feel stuck or overwhelmed by events, and are not sure how to navigate our inner, emotional, or relational worlds alone.
