Would you rather go the gyno than see a therapist? If you're the kind of person who cringes at the thought of therapy, I get it; therapy shouldn't feel like a lecture or a bad Tinder date. My approach is refreshingly different - it's all about candid conversations, practical strategies, and a good dose of humor. Laid back, coffee date with friends is the vibe during sessions. Maybe you are feeling burned out, anxious, or are losing your shit every day. I love working with women who need an outlet to navigate life’s BS. Working together, we will find way to reduce your stress and improve your quality of life.

Hey there, ready to start your journey towards a happier, healthier you? I'm here to help! Life throws us curveballs, but it's how we handle them that counts. If you're feeling stuck, stressed, or just a bit 'meh', therapy might be the change you're looking for. I'm not your average therapist—I’m all about keeping it real. No stiff suits or stuffy offices here. Just a cozy couch, maybe a cup of tea (or coffee, if that's your vibe), and a safe space to chat about whatever's on your mind. Let's keep it real—therapy doesn't have to be all serious and stuffy.

Tired of feeling stuck, misunderstood, & disconnected? Get help today! I am part of Foundations Family Life Counseling and Consulting (FFLCC). At FFLCC we focus on topics such as life adjustments, depression, anxiety, relationship / family issues, and trauma. We specialize in trauma and childhood attachment issues, working to resolve big or little traumas or negative experiences which tend to impede emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual growth. We focus on healing rather than just coping, by finding and resolving underlaying issues. I specialize with Military Families and have served in the Armed Forces for many years.

I love working with couples and families who wish to break free of unproductive patterns and reconnect with one another on a deeper lever. I see how much our relationships between affect ourselves within. No matter how hurt we've been, how self-protective we are, or how desperate we want to connect, we sometimes get in the way of the very closeness we seek. With compassion and understanding, I work with clients to build on strengths and attain more secure loving bonds in their relationships.

It’s my joy to assist people as they find their way to balance, wholeness and a life that is meaningful to them and in line with their values. It is my belief that life brings all of us situations that are challenging, whether slightly difficult or seemingly insurmountable. During these times it can be helpful to have someone present with us and truly hear us, for being truly seen and heard, in and of itself, can be healing and therapeutic. I seek to help my clients gain awareness, understanding, and clarity as they go through challenges and find new ways to navigate life that are appropriate for them and align with their values.

I help Black Women, who self-identify as independent or hyper-independent, find safety in healthy relationships. Your wounds from past relationships may have been nurtured, instead of healed, to help you to show up as your own version of strength and not experience hurt and pain again. If you have embodied independence as a badge of honor, you have to learn a new version of strength to help in connecting with others. Our biggest opportunities for growth is in relationship with others. When you are triggered to run, shut down, fight, or people-please, it's for protection of self, but...

Hi All :) I'll be upfront that my approach to counseling in general is a bit unorthodox. While I favorably tailor treatment to the client, (I'd like to think) I make the experience a little less clinical and a little more relaxed. Whether you're looking to cut back on a substance, or working towards complete abstinence, I'll collaborate with you to explore your goals, wants, and how we can get there together. I generally adopt a harm reduction approach, utilizing techniques such as motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral therapy; however, learning about your relationship to the drug is where I like to begin.
