Are you struggling to understand why you feel the way that you do? Do you sometimes feel that you have a dark cloud overhead? Is it difficult to identify life circumstances that are contributing to low mood or easy to identify, however, hard to manage? Do you experience anxiety or panic attacks that interfere with your quality of life? With changes in perspective and cognitive restructuring, as well as acceptance, you have the ability to create the happiness and stability that you desire in your life. Happiness and healing are not linear. The exploration of past trauma opens up doors to emotions that are waiting to be resolved

Deciding to come to therapy can be very scary. Sharing your most intimate thoughts with someone can be even more frightening. This is why I make sure that I create a very safe, caring, positive, and secure place where you can feel comfortable and know that you are with someone who truly cares about your well-being.

My life purpose is to break generational curses and make mental health a household conversation. Being a woman of color, mental health has not always been an assessable conversation. In the black community, we are always told to be strong, get over things quickly, and keep looking forward. Unfortunately, that meant we spent years overlooking normal human emotions that caused us to develop bad and unhealthy habits and relationships as an adult. Now, being a mental health professional and therapist, I am destined to make a difference, make mental health an enjoyable conversation, and continue to help bridge the gap.

My belief is that effective counseling develops from establishing a collaborative relationship with clients, as they are the experts in their lives. Through psychodynamic therapy individuals gain a self-awareness and understanding of the influence of their past on present circumstances, and enables individuals to explore unresolved conflicts and symptoms that arise from past dysfunctional relationships and manifest themselves in current issues going in their lives. My belief is that people want to be healthy and happy and sometimes just do not know where to start.

I believe everyone needs and deserves a safe space to address barriers preventing them from navigating through life the way they desire, thus I seek to foster safe and comfortable environments for those oppressed and marginalized. Living in unprecedented times, it is especially important to have support, awareness, and knowledge of effective coping skills to manage life's stressors. I believe it’s also important to process the lives we’ve already experienced and explore how this cultivates our current worldview.

Practiced behaviors become influential patterns that transcend generations. Unfortunately, abusive cycles committed by our caregivers or those we hold dear to our hearts manifest into routine, emotional pain, which can feel impossible to break. We find ourselves normalizing abuse to maintain connections to our abusers even when it hurts. Being raised in unhealthy environments shifts our perceptions. Over time, we develop coping and protective mechanisms to avoid reopening emotional wounds. These learned unhealthy practices dictate our interactions with others.
