Gen-Z & Millennials, I understand the unique challenges you face being completely overcome by unruly and intense emotions. You're doing your best and still find yourself getting hijacked by your emotions, unable to express yourself and be how you want. You're tired of the self-doubt, circular arguments, panic, anger, and sadness that are holding you back. You're ready to know yourself in new, embodied and loving ways in order to feel in harmony with yourself and your life.

I am very effective with children who have behavioral challenges due to trauma, pressures, family troubles, or unknowns. I easily connect with teens who struggle to fit in or feel understood so they can open up and allow me to help them. I empower young adults who are feeling anxious and/or depressed. I can guide couples to rekindle their passion and commitment for each other as two separate grounded individuals who choose each other on a regular basis. I guide adult individuals who are going through break ups to have major breakthroughs in their journey. Let's get you to wherever you want to be.

Waitlist for new clients
You're ready for a change. The way that things have been going doesn't feel sustainable. You might be feeling exhausted, anxious, down, worn out or on edge and it's taking its toll. While it may have felt that you once knew what you wanted, what you are working for and who you are now, it is isn't entirely clear anymore. It's also hard because who do you turn to with all of this? As a man, it can be isolating to be going through this without any source of direction or support. We're often conditioned to express our emotions in a very specific way (cue single tear during the Superbowl), but what happens when that isn't working?

“We grow through what we have gone through” Let’s be honest, life is tough, especially when trying to maintain a work/life balance and forget all the pain we have experienced in the past. Black men and women have their own unique set of challenges, but one commonality is the societal pressures, the weight of expectations, and the layers of individual and generational traumas that leave us confused, hurt, scared, and seeking answers. Despite these feelings you are experiencing, always remember, you still have the ability to control your own path even when things appear out of control.

STOP FIGHTING...LEARN TO LOVE AGAIN! I specialize in helping couples talk about challenges in their relationships. We will focus on what's not working and and most importantly we will discover why. Counseling allows people to open up and share even the hard stuff that usually stays hidden from the other person. Counseling helps couples re-discover each other again, in a way that is more satisfying to both. The goal of counseling is to provide you new skills for you to use to communicate with each other and to help you feel more connected.

It's natural to feel anxious about starting your therapy journey especially if this is your first time. I have extensive experience working with first-time therapy clients. Particularly those navigating the complexities of being first-generation looking to break transgenerational trauma cycles while still honoring their family and roots. Striving to honor your family and cultural values while breaking free from unhealthy patterns passed down can be challenging but with therapy it is possible. In our sessions, you will have a safe space to express your thoughts and feelings without judgment.

Individuals gracefully bridging the gap between two cultures and embracing their diverse identities. Couples desiring to dismantle destructive patterns, foster healthy communication, and nurture a profound and lasting bond. Individuals courageously confronting chronic pain and illness, seeking solace and healing. Caregivers wanting to unlearn harmful parenting styles and step away from dynamics that don’t serve them.

Expecting, birthing, or parenting a baby brings the underlying "stuff" to the surface. You might be noticing tensed muscles, an aching head, an upset stomach, or racing thoughts about the most awful things that have happened or that COULD happen. Maybe you feel exhausted and drained all throughout the day but lie awake at night with your heart pounding, too anxious to fall asleep. Maybe you're yearning to bond with your little one but feeling like you're blocked by a wall - too overwhelmed, too worried, too tangled up in the scary thoughts, and in too much pain to be present. But this chapter doesn't have to feel this way!
