Maybe you seek to outgrow patterns that no longer serve you. Maybe you struggle with self-doubt, low self-esteem, or trouble setting boundaries. That's okay. We all face challenges and have things we'd like to change. My compassionate approach meets clients where they are and provides a safe space for self-discovery, healing, and growth. My experience includes working with complex trauma, attachment-based issues, and interpersonal challenges such as codependency, low self-esteem, and relationship/family issues. These can often manifest as anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, and more.

Life can be stressful, and looking for help can be challenging. One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. The road might seem long but with one foot in front of the other, you will begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I've worked with adolescents, adults, and families with a variety of challenges that include anxiety, grief, depression, trauma, Postpartum, life transition, self-esteem, and relationships challenges.

Are you a Millennial or Black/POC high-achieving woman, grappling with self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and perfectionism? Do you face added layers of societal expectations and microaggressions, like being overlooked in professional settings or misunderstood in social interactions, which make it harder for you to speak up or seek help. It's tough feeling like you constantly have to prove yourself, both professionally and personally. Perhaps you’ve reached a breaking point where the emotional toll is affecting your health, career and relationships, prompting you to seek therapy.

I wear many hats in life, and many people in my personal life rely on me. Many of my family and friends view me as a comforter. Though this may be admirable, I teach everyone to be self-sufficient, including my clients. My passion allows me to be available for my life calling of servicing women and families. I do this effortlessly. I understand many aspects of womanhood because my experiences have taught me what it is like to be a single mother, working mother, and now married with bonus children. I love my family, and I love working with women and families. There isn't a women's challenge or trauma that I have not helped.

Many come to therapy during threshold times, those moments during major life transitions that may be filled with grief, fear, or anxiety. I meet clients at this doorway and offer support, solace, and guidance as they travel from one phase of life to another. I specialize in providing pregnancy and postpartum mental health care, which includes those who have experienced birth trauma and reproductive loss. I also work with those moving through other life transitions including divorce, loss of a loved one, job changes, menopause, and cancer or chronic illness diagnosis.
