I often attract the overachievers, the go-getters, the ones who have learned that things could have been better in their childhood and want to do differently (the change makers!). Oftentimes with overachieving and go getting is people pleasing, earning your worth by doing, and perfectionism. I often attract clients who are brave, courages and ready for change, ready for authenticity, ready to feel empowered and increase their self worth. I often attract clients like... you!

Are you looking for an experienced therapist who specializes and is certified in DBT? One who is supportive and validating, yet down to earth and provides honest feedback. Are you struggling with intense emotions, negative/ruminating thoughts, impulsive behavior, or doubting yourself and the decisions you make? Do you feel like you’re "not good enough," are too critical of yourself, or "overthink everything?" Do you have difficulty managing the stress, disappointments, and changes in your life?

Alcohol. Tricky stuff. We go years and years and think we have it under control and before we know it we are over the cliff - absent a parachute. Drugs aren't much different... just faster and illegal. Sometimes our problems increase gradually until we turn around one day and think "done with this... not living this way anymore." Or it is that one nasty event you didn't even see coming: the accident and DUI, the separation-causing fight, the job loss. Embarrassment goes up; self-esteem goes down. The hole seems deep and hopeless. And still the drug, the drink keeps calling you back. Fear and bewilderment rule the day.

My goal is to meet you where you are in your mental health journey regardless of where you currently are. As the counselor, I do not assume the role of expert, but as the client’s equal in the therapeutic journey together. As the client, you can expect a judgement-free space, unconditional positive regard, a working therapeutic alliance, confidentiality, and competent care. Benefits to counseling include learning effective coping and living skills, better relationships, improved self-esteem, reduced stress, and a healthier body and mind.

My goal is to help guide my clients to where they need/want to be despite whether or not they are currently on that path. As a counselor, I do not wear the "expert cap", because this is your life, your experiences, and your concerns. You are the expert on your life! I am here to provide an unbiased, safe place for you to talk to through (and live through) your experiences. All clients are treated equally and will be given the same unconditional positive regard. Counseling has many benefits, such as increased self-esteem, better coping skills, increased self-awareness, better daily living skills, stress reduction, & holistic health.

As a licensed clinical psychologist of over 17 years, I have worked with thousands of high performers, especially black women and BIPOC, by helping them uncover hidden issues that get in the way of true work-life balance and the ability to enjoy the life they worked hard to build. I’ve found that high performers, particularly black women, have difficulty with selfcare and are exhausted emotionally, physically, and mentally. Work-life balance is both a mystery and a necessity, so much so that some say that it doesn’t exist. I beg to differ. I'm not an average therapist and my clients aren't average in their respective careers either.
