"No mud. No lotus" - Thich Nhat Hanh. It is my belief that therapy is a transformative journey of self discovery, personal awakening, empowerment, and healing. As a therapist, I seek to guide clients towards personal fulfillment and self discovery. Often times we face struggles and hardship without any guidance or support. People also may never learn how to recover from the blows that life will inevitably deal to us all. However, It is my goal to help clients find meaning in their struggle and a sense of personal victory in their efforts to overcome them.

As a Black woman living in the United States, I wear multiple hats like many others. I grew up in a religiously conservative household and spent some of my childhood on a compound. I’ve wrestled with reconciling spirituality with the religious ideals I was taught. My background is in Social Work, Marriage and Family Therapy, and Psychology and I have over ten years of experience as a therapist. My journey has been one of learning how to manage stress, intentional personal growth and radical self acceptance. It is this knowledge and experience that I bring into my practice and in my work with clients.

You deserve to feel whole and experience freedom from what you are facing, and learning new evidence-based tools, perspectives, and coping skills can greatly advance your journey back to happiness and self-confidence.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, alone, and/or frustrated? You may be facing something difficult in your life or hurting from past emotional wounds that still linger in your thoughts. If you are suffering from depression, anxiety, grief, or trauma, you may wonder how you will ever feel any better. For hurting couples, you may find yourself in a high conflict situation, where you feel there is no hope or a way forward for the relationship. Whether individually or in a couple, you may know something needs to change, but you just don’t know where to start. That is where a compassionate, understanding therapist can help!
