Is your sense of self slipping through your fingers? Maybe you're feeling exhausted by what living up to someone else’s standards has meant for you. . . but just the thought of putting your needs ahead of everyone else's sends you into a guilt spiral. Or maybe you followed all the rules, did everything “right,” and you’re still not seeing the proof of "happiness" and "success" in your pudding. I. Get. It. I've been there (and made it out) and now I coach adults navigating their own life transitions how to reclaim their agency after educational, workplace, and relational trauma.
I offer solutions-focused coaching-style therapy for rebellious, high-achieving folks with depression and EMDR for Black women - all in service of getting you out of those same ol patterns of people pleasing, avoiding conflict, and playing small that keep you bound to a version of yourself that you don't recognize.
Clients regularly seek my expertise to undo urgency, release guilt, and remember who they are (and who they still can be) as they rearrange their lives to honor and celebrate their full selves. I encourage mindful self-compassion as the foundation to strengthening self-trust and self-confidence. Want in? Give me a call and let's check the vibes!
