I am neurodivergent, witchy, kink positive, I cuss a lot, I am unapologetically Black, and I absolutely center my life and survival around pleasure. By embodying an existential, person-centered, and social justice approach, I strive to support my community in exploring and embracing the parts of ourselves that shame, guilt, sorrow, and oppression have tried to bury. We cannot reclaim the fruits and flowers of our light, without also honoring the guttural and soil-like darkness that lies within us! Together, let us reclaim, rebirth, and rebel!

Hi and welcome. I believe that therapy should be a collaborative partnership between you and your therapist. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist trained in EMDR, understanding trauma and its effect on a person's day to day functioning is a powerful tool to help those who are struggling. It is okay to ask for help - we all need it at some point. Please reach out and give me a call. We can chat to learn if I would be the best fit.

As a man and a father, you never expected to need to ask for help. Yet, life has become particularly tough. It’s hard to talk about, but the worrying and emotional ups and downs have made it hard to find enjoyment in life. Your spouse has pointed out that you are moody and seem different. You’ve had enough of this, though, and are ready for a change. Not just for your family, but for yourself, too. You might not know where to start, but you won't let that hold you back. While getting to work can be hard, you are committed to your family, and are ready to get started.

I simply want to say, “I am here”. I am here to listen to your unique story. No matter the twist and turns your life takes, we can navigate this journey together. Allow me to be the compass to your treasure map! By going within we connect with our different Parts; The Critic, The Scared Child, or The Angry Teen. There we make peace with all Parts, allowing the opportunity to be seen and heard. This approach is called Internal Family Systems (IFS) and it allows a safe platform for all Parts and Self to interact and form healthy bonds. When unity is created, peace is found.

I work from a relational and insight oriented approach. I believe that we were all created for connection and that our woundedness often gets in the way of this connectedness, whether it be to God or to others. Deep, intensive, soul counseling can help heal this woundedness so that connections are more honest, genuine, and whole. It should also leave you with a deeper sense of self and identity, so that you can interact in healthy ways with the world around you.

Helping clients find freedom is my speciality. I work with motivated clients who have experienced relationship trauma and adult life disappointments and setbacks. Many of my clients are the first in their families to seek therapy. And many of my clients are outwardly successful, but suffering on the inside. Together, we get curious about the pain and the obstacels, so you can meet — or regain — your sense of Self. Clarity, confidence, courage, authenticity and self compassion — these are your birthright. I love working with clients and seeing them move forward into freedom.

Human beings are storytellers. We weave stories from our understanding of our own lives and the lives of those around us. As our minds compose the story it is possible for us to lose track of the plot. Occasionally we find ourselves believing that we are a supporting character in our own lives. You are meant to be the protagonist of your own story. I believe that you are meant to live a life of unique purpose, and that you are worthy of dignity and respect. Counseling can be the place where we recalibrate our thinking, and strengthen the parts of ourselves we keep hidden and safe. Sometimes we need help, and that is only human.
