Black and African American Therapists in Fort Worth, TX
Life has a way of exhausting us, especially when it feels like we’re chasing standards no one could meet. I know this struggle deeply. Like so many of us, I’ve juggled work, parenting and relationships while forgetting to take care of myself. I know what it feels like to carry heavy expectations—as a woman of color and a child of an immigrant, I’ve often felt the weight of needing to be strong, capable & successful all at the same time.
I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety & depression, and overcome the challenges of life transitions. As a new mother, I have expanded my skills in supporting perinatal individuals.

Everyday is a fresh start! I most certainly believe that Seasons Change and so do You! Often times when grief, toxic relationships overtake and break our hearts; caregiving stretches us, depression and anxiety infiltrate our minds; self-esteem and the inability to express thoughts and feelings; emotions overtake our voice; clients find themselves hiding in the shadows; just existing and not living; doing and not being. Learning to live within your desired lifestyle, gaining your voice, awareness, and setting goals to lead a mindful and healthier lifestyle innately inspires clients to move forward in whatever season they're facing.

You’re balancing school, work, and family expectations while trying to shine in environments that weren’t designed for you. It’s no wonder you feel anxious, overwhelmed, and drained from constantly performing and switching between different personas. You’re ready to stop shouldering everyone else’s burdens, find your true voice, and reconnect with who you really are. You’re seeking guidance, practical tools, and a safe, judgment-free space to explore your identity, manage stress, and navigate transitions so you can feel more grounded, confident, and genuinely yourself.

Do you ever feel like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders? Maybe you're constantly taking care of everyone else while quietly struggling with anxiety, stress, past trauma, or a major life transition. You don't have to figure it all out alone.
My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable enough to be yourself—without judgment or pressure. Clients often tell me they feel truly seen and heard after our very first session. I believe healing starts with feeling understood, and from there, we work together to create meaningful, lasting change.

Many of my clients are high-functioning adults who feel anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in trauma patterns despite “doing everything right.” They may struggle with PTSD, chronic stress, depression, identity shifts, or burnout. They want more than coping—they want to understand the root of their experiences, feel safer in their bodies, rebuild self-trust, and experience lasting change rather than temporary relief.

LIFE be LIFING… From the outside, you’re holding it together—but inside, you’re exhausted and running on empty. Your mind won’t slow down, your emotions feel heavy, and you’re just trying to get through the day.
You may even be experiencing compassion fatigue—giving so much to others that there’s nothing left for you. You don’t have to keep doing this alone. I help you move out of survival mode, gain clarity, and feel more grounded, calm, and in control.

You may love each other but feel stuck in the same arguments, miscommunication, or emotional distance. Conversations escalate, issues go unresolved, and over time the relationship can feel exhausting or disconnected. I work with couples who want to understand what’s happening beneath the surface so they can communicate more effectively, rebuild connection, and move forward with greater clarity and intention.

Member of Texas Psychological Association, Fort Worth Psychological Association, and Association of Black Psychologists.
Dr. Young believes that growth occurs through honest, thoughtful dialogue rather than simply telling clients what they want to hear. This approach led to her being nicknamed, “Dr. Keep-It-Real” during her internship. By offering direct yet compassionate feedback, she helps clients gain deeper perspectives into their inner world—how their experiences, emotional patterns, and sense of self may influence the ways they navigate life and relationships.

As a Nigerian and Italian therapist and doctoral researcher, I bring both lived cultural understanding and an evidence-based lens to every session.
Adolescence and young adulthood can feel like trying to build an identity while the ground keeps shifting: family expectations, culture, substance use, or trauma all pulling in different directions. My clients are teens and young adults navigating exactly that, often carrying depression, anxiety, or identity questions they have not felt safe voicing elsewhere. My team and I meet them with honesty and compassion, offering a space where their full story, context and complexity included, is understood rather than simplified.
