Trauma disrupts the whole person. It can leave you feeling detached from yourself and disconnected from those around you. With the extensive variety of symptoms trauma leaves in its wake, it’s also common for survivors to feel misunderstood by the rest of society. My goal is to create the space you need to begin feeling safe being you. My passion is for trauma survivors who desire to pursue a life of greater peace, genuineness, and fulfillment. I specialize in working with issues such as Complex PTSD, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, and dissociative disorders, including Dissociative Identity Disorder.

You're in the "prime years of your life" but are experiencing emptiness, anxiety, or overwhelming sadness. You long to be accepted and find belonging, but you struggle with fully accepting yourself. Things might even seem to be in place on the outside, but on the inside you are feeling lost, lonely, and struggling with that voice that tells you you're not good enough. If this is you, you've come to the right place. I work with
women
in their 20s and 30s. These defining decades are the backdrop to cultivating your identity but are also filled with difficult transitions and relationships allowing your childhood wounds to play out.

Deciding to go to therapy is not an easy thing to do.
Women
of color are often told to suck it up, get over it, and be strong. But sometimes, being strong means knowing when to ask for help. Being strong means admitting to ourselves that we can't do it all on our own, and that's okay. Oftentimes, we may not even be able to recognize all the difficult situations we've been through and all the challenges we have come up against. Traumatic experiences in childhood and/or adulthood that we have not had a chance to deal with may now be catching up to us.

I specialize in trauma counseling with a focus on helping children, adolescents and adult men and
women
recover from childhood abuse, domestic violence and other past or ongoing traumatic experiences.
Clients with whom I typically work tend to have come to the realization that their past unresolved trauma experiences (be it severe trauma or trauma that happened in childhood and significantly impacted their childhood development) continue to disrupt their ability to manage stress, relate to others, maintain healthy relationships and/or manage and express emotions. In addition, they tend to have developed mental health diagnoses, such as: anxiety, depression and PTSD. They also tend to find it nearly impossible to trust or become vulnerable with others. If this sounds like you, there's a high probability that I can help.

Over the past several years, I have been privileged to witness and guide the healing journeys of many
women
and families recovering from the effects of trauma, abuse, life stress, and grief and loss. Intrusive thoughts about what happened, outsized reactions to normal life stress, relationship issues, and anxiety and depression are normal reactions to what happened to you then, but they no longer serve you now. As a trained and experienced trauma counselor, I can help you heal without the blaming and shaming messages you might have heard in the past from well-meaning friends, family, clergy, or even counselors.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone 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 United States, 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, 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.
