Ready to stop carrying the weight of it all alone? Let me help! You may be known for having it all together—balancing work, life, and relationships—but inside, you struggle to find the support you need. I specialize in helping high-achieving BIPOC women and young professionals who face 'high-functioning' anxiety, depression, and stress. Whether you're navigating life transitions, seeking self-discovery, or work-life harmony. I offer a compassionate, judgment-free space where you can finally be vulnerable and heard. Together, we’ll uncover what’s beneath the mask, address those hidden emotional wounds, to help you heal and thrive.
Using an integrative humanistic approach, I honor the systems you navigate and tailor our sessions to your unique experiences. I prioritize authenticity and collaboration, ensuring you feel seen, supported, and understood. Therapy with me isn’t just about coping—it’s about finding real emotional freedom, balance, and fulfillment.
Wherever you are on your journey, I’m here to walk alongside you, offering the guidance and support you deserve. Let’s work together to create the life of peace, joy, and authenticity you’ve been craving. You deserve to thrive, not just survive.

In my practice, I often utilize integrative humanistic approaches. Together, we'll focus on building self-awareness while placing great importance on our therapeutic relationship. To help bridge the gap between awareness and meaningful change, I use gentle confrontation, empathy, and storytelling to explore the differences between who you are now and who you aspire to become.
