Welcome: I see you juggling work, family, relationships, and cultural identity while your self care has been placed on the back burner. As a woman of color, you may find yourself working twice as hard yet often getting half as much for your trouble. You want to live a full juicy life yet find yourself feeling stuck. I see you and I've got your back. It is my passion to support and encourage women (and a few sensitive men) who are ready to move past surviving to thriving. I work with women of all races and I am especially passionate in supporting Black Women and WOC who are desiring to be seen and heard.
When you feel broken, it's hard to show up. Therapy can help you figure out what is blocking your blessings. I implement the necessary tools to those experiencing mild to moderate depression and/or anxious mood states, unresolved childhood trauma, and women of color dealing with bias and racism.
Reach out by email to schedule a free 15-20 minute phone consultation. During this time, we'll get to know each other and decide if we might be a good fit. You're investing your time and hard earned coins. it is my endeavor to offer tools, strategies, and compassion in supporting your well being and not waste your time.
