You feel like your anxiety is getting the best of you and feel like you no longer have control over your thoughts, feelings, and emotions. You are noticing that even when you try to take a break and focus on yourself, that your breath catches in your chest and then you feel it…the anxiety. You have a difficult time sleeping at night because you worry about the course of events that took place that day and the laundry list of things you have to do tomorrow. Worries such as: “Did I make a mistake at work?” “What did that person think of me?” “Am I being a good Partner/Parent/Friend” swirl like a tornado in your mind.

I am a mental and emotional health advocate who strongly believes that mental/emotional wellness should be promoted and discussed more, especially in Black and Brown communities — we need it. I consider self-care to be the best care and believe the second that we choose to better ourselves, the world around us becomes better too. An uncommon level of strength is tapped into when people can acknowledge that they need help. Distinguishing the problem from the person, I strive to help people walk through the steps necessary to reach their happiest and most influential selves.

“Be yourself always, in all ways” Many people come into therapy with a preconceived notion about how therapy has gone for them, how it’s supposed to go, and/or how it will go if they’ve never been. My greatest philosophy is that in order to experience therapy in its purest form, the first step is to let go of those expectations, & come willing to explore something new. Whomever you are, as beautiful or ugly as you assume, your full self is welcome right here. Through genuine empathy and connection, I hope to create a safe space for you to discover and create your identity.

The contemporary definition of empathy is seeing with the eyes of another, listening with the ears of another, and feeling with the heart of another. This is the philosophical mantra of my sensitivity to other people's feelings, emotions, and desires. My genuine, empathetic relationship with clients and mutual trust are essential to successful therapy. I pride myself on being a compassionate listener to individuals who have faced life’s most profound challenges, suffered from mood disorders, experienced trauma, grief, abuse, or relational problems, and suffered multiple stresses, including those related to work and academia.

It is important to have a safe space to express your true feelings and process your experiences in life. Therapy is a perfect space to do that without judgment and at your own pace. There are many different approaches to therapy for each client, and one size does not fit all. I like to use a client-centered approach as I believe in giving the client the agency to feel in control of their therapeutic experience. I use various approaches such as CBT and mindfulness, to create an environment and experience that is individualized and beneficial to the client’s goals and expectations.
