Do you struggle to communicate your needs, set boundaries, and be assertive? Are you going through a life transition? I challenge you to speak your truth, understand yourself, and be authentic while maintaining boundaries and moving through the difficulties of life. I use humor and a strong therapeutic relationship to help you be your ideal, most grounded self. I am also a Haitian / Black woman who understands what it means to be an immigrant and someone straddling multiple identities at once. I help you integrate your identities into your journey so that you will be able to navigate family or cultural needs with ease.
As a psychologist, I have expertise in depression, anxiety, identity development, trauma, social skills, and race-based trauma. I love helping people with understanding and improving relationships, living according to one’s values, and weathering life's storms. I will make you laugh, call you into a conversation, and help you think differently.
Finding a therapist you trust can be difficult. I hope to be a source of light and empathy while helping you on your journey. Reach out to me via telephone, my website, or email. I am happy to help and look forward to being a guiding light along your healing journey!
