As people, we all search for balance in this journey called life. I'm here for clients who look like I do because we've shared similar experiences and can relate as a result. I am here for clients who want to feel comfortable and seen before divulging information about their experiences but who are also ready to acknowledge their opportunities for personal growth and utilize them. Forward progression is a desire of many, but work will be required to achieve it. I am here to help others address childhood trauma, relationship struggles, grief, school/work life, and new environments or seasons of life.
As an African American Studies scholar and social worker, I am an advocate for cultural compatibility and determining root causes. I believe in meeting people where they are. I want to tailor my services around what best suits you. I specialize in providing CBT to evaluate and help others process the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and actions.
Life is full of highs and lows. There is a natural ebb and flow that is out of your control. However, the one aspect you can control is the part that provides the most stability, yourself. Share your experiences and aspirations with me, and allow me to be a set of training wheels on your bike ride of life.
