Let's partner together, whether individuals, families, couples, divorce, career or educational goal using Collaborative Approach to improve your relationship, overcome issues such as anxiety, or find purpose and happiness in your personal life.
You feel that your partner just doesn't get you. You feel confused, misunderstood or blame for things happening in the relationship. You fight all the time. Separation or divorce would be a better option because you are tired of the yelling, screaming and distance. Feel like you are walking on egg shells. You find yourself alone staring and thinking. You feel something, just not able to say exactly what's bothering you. You try to pretend everything is okay, the more you see yourself losing your grip on things around you. You tell yourself, things will get better, you put your best smile on for the world, it continues to get worse.

I have a passion for working with the Black community to destigmatize the idea of accessing mental health services. Whether it is working with a family or couple to decrease conflict and increase intimacy or assisting an individual to process trauma, helping them to have a healthier relationship with themselves and others, it brings me joy to restore families to a sense of wholeness. I also really enjoy clients who are motivated to do the work, are willing to be open and receptive to the therapeutic process and who have an intrinsic desire to increase their self-awareness regarding their needs and wants.

"What you think, you become. What you feel, you attract. What you imagine, you create." -- Buddha. Thanks for stopping by. I provide services for both adults and children. I am passionate about working to address anxiety, depression, social/peer concerns, and more. I specialize in play therapy working with children ages 2-12. I believe children are better able to express their feelings, needs, experiences, and thoughts via play, rather than just words. Play therapy allows children to grow and heal at their own developmental level, and I strive to promote self awareness, self expression, and improved relationships.

The driving force that makes each therapy session successful is how hard my client works to achieve his/her goals. It takes a lot to seek therapy and the first step is the most difficult one. However, I believe in the innate power that my client has within him/herself to find a way, El Camino. My approach is client centered, but at times direct because I am not afraid to work on what may be difficult for you to face.

Divorce Therapists

How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?

Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?

There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?

When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
