I believe therapy is essential for making lasting life changes and breaking generational cycles. I meet you where you are, offering a nonjudgmental environment filled with compassion and empathy. My therapeutic approach is grounded in trauma-informed psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 8 years of direct-service. I obtained a BA from DePaul University where I double-majored in African and Black Diaspora Studies and English. I then received a MSW from the University of Chicago.

I believe that healing is a collaborative endeavor that requires honest caring without shame or judgment. I provide a safe, caring and confidential environment for clients to explore their feelings, beliefs and clarify their goals. Something unique about my approach is that I use a strength-based approach, tailoring my approach to each client’s interest for engagement. I have a unique ability to help explore and discover your true identity, sexual expression, sexuality, and gender identity. I became a therapist to support the disruption of generational cycles that are not helpful while building confidence.

Whether you're interested in brief, solution-focused assistance or longer term work, I'll help you uncover the causes of your current challenges by examining how past experiences, thought patterns, or other issues prevent you from having a more fulfilling life.

I use focused curiosity and a strengths based assessment to help you explore your concerns and to identify what new skills you could benefit from learning. Collaboratively, we create the plan that allows you to reach your objectives at the pace that feels comfortable for you. With a banquet of psychological theories to choose from, I utilize those that fit your specific personality and your specific need. I don't believe that one size fits all. Uncomfortable challenges in life are to be expected, but suffering is not. With support, new perspectives and effective strategies for cognitive and emotional management, they can become mere speedbumps.

You may come to see me for a variety of reasons. Sometimes it's the way you are feeling and other times it's an event or situation you find yourself in life.

We will work together in a trusting and respectful therapeutic relationship to better understand and work-through unresolved issues that are getting in the way for you. You deserve to feel better and have a fuller life experience.

I consider it a privilege to work with clients as they navigate through times of pain, sorrow, and self-exploration.
I appreciate learning from clients their goals for the therapy process and how they hope to change. I assist clients in understanding possible triggers to uncomfortable thoughts, feelings, or behaviors, while also identifying ways in which they may find themselves stuck. Together, we will identify healthy coping skills for managing and ultimately moving past the distress, leading to a healthier and lighter way of being.

Having more than 25-years experience with issues most often brought to therapy, I see our work together as a healing process and sacred journey of the soul with my role being guide, witness and companion on the path towards wholeness, self-empowerment and self-realization. It's often a journey into the unconscious using dreams and one's creative process. This brings a deep commitment to my own growth as well. Beginning in the addictions field and continually striving to deepen my knowledge of the alchemy of healing I am also a Jungian analyst.
