I am passionate about helping those who are introspective, emotionally-inclined, and curious. I care about helping clients move beyond the surface in therapy to reach a deeper level of truth that they haven't yet spoken. Too often, therapy glosses over the fact that, at times, life is painful and messy. As much as we might want to avoid this, I strive to remind clients that we are better off trying to embrace this, and we might be surprised by what comes from doing so.

Over the past 12 years, I have worked with individuals, families, and couples in a variety of capacities; at a hospital, clinic, community behavioral health organization, and within school settings. I went to graduate school to specifically study how each aspect of our system plays a part in our overall mental and physical health. I’m also certified in Integrative Wellness and Nutrition for Mental Health as well as Addiction Counseling. Feeling better requires changes within your entire system. One’s system might include family, friends, work, exercise, nutrition, school, social activities, alone time, running errands, chores, etc.

It's impossible to travel 1,800 miles on a quarter tank of gas. Our vehicles would fail to arrive at their destinations without sufficient fuel. Just as the gas tanks in our vehicles require proper maintenance to move, so do we as humans. You've driven far enough without proper maintenance, it's time to pull over and refuel. Allow me to provide the roadside assistance needed to help you on your journey to a "Wellness Refill".

Most weeds (negative thoughts) will compete within their environment for nourishment (attention). When left unattended, they can consume your garden (mind), limit creativity and halt growth. When nurtured, the seed (thought) the weed grew from, has the ability to propel into full bloom (stability), eliminating the undesirable state it once was. After all, a weed is just a flower (hope) planted in the wrong place. Where are you planting your hope?

Right now, is the time to give ourselves permission to make changes that allow us to have control over our journey. As a Black woman & BIPOC therapist I am deeply passionate about treating mental health holistically. The mind, body, and spirit work together to bring fulfillment, but when the balance is off, things just don't feel right. Traumatic and challenging experiences in our lives can affect our nervous system, rendering us vulnerable, confused and at times stuck/frozen in fight and or flight responses to life. I personally know how beneficial integrating spiritual, mental, and physical health is to the healing process.

I am a firm believer in the power of the stories that we tell about ourselves and our experiences. Sometimes experiences like changes in relationship status, career changes, new education experiences, or entering a new phase of life can cause us to buy into a negative story narrated by our inner critic, leading to symptoms like racing thoughts, low energy, feelings of inadequacy, etc.. In sessions we will examine how past, present, and ongoing experiences shape your current story and identity. Together we will work to create a new story that includes your identified values, strengths, life goals, and accomplishments.
