My role in the therapeutic relationship is to empower clients in areas that will provide personal growth through the co-creation of treatment goals. A vital part of the success of any therapy is the relationship between the client and therapist. As a therapist, I believe Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy are both very effective tools

I help clients to "connect the dots" from their present problems (addictions, acting out behaviors, negative core beliefs, low self-esteem, relationship conflicts, substance abuse, obesity) to an unhealed, deeper issue that evolved during childhood or from a past trauma.
Are you unable to achieve the goals and dreams that you desire? Are you suffering from internal upset, fears, flashbacks of a trauma, insecurities, self-doubt, feeling unloved, disheartened or deep sadness? Are your relationships "not working", conflictual, "empty" and non-supportive? Do you think, "Why can't I make the changes that I want in my life and live the life I desire?" If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, contact me now. I know that I can be of service to you in a rewarding, life changing manner. It is time. YOU are worth it!

Welcome to a safe space for black women, indigenous women, women of color and our allies. It is important to recognize that cultural factors can impact how conditions are experienced and treated. For example, research has shown that individuals from BIPOC racial and ethnic backgrounds may be less likely to seek mental health treatment due to cultural stigma, lack of access to care, or mistrust of healthcare providers. As a black doctor with cultural understanding, I am uniquely positioned to address these barriers and provide culturally sensitive care for women with ADHD, Anxiety, Obesity and Professional Burnout.

Obesity Therapists

Can obesity be a cause of depression and anxiety?

Yes. It can be stressful and debilitating to carry excess weight. Many people make inaccurate assumptions about people who are overweight. This stigma may lead individuals to feel badly about themselves, decreasing their self-esteem, or leading to feelings of worthlessness. An association between obesity and depression is well-established.

When should an individual seek treatment for obesity?

When obesity, or the feelings it causes, creates a disruption in your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Examples include avoiding social situations due to anxiety, an inability to participate in family life as a result of health problems, or poor performance at work due to low self-esteem or other concerns.

Are there specific medications for weight loss?

There are several prescription drugs that can help with weight loss, including semaglutide and phentermine. These drugs reduce appetite and must be prescribed by a physician. Professionals will suggest lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, before turning to drugs, which have side effects and typically are prescribed only for a short duration. Many people regain weight after taking weight loss drugs if they have not made significant lifestyle changes.

What is body positivity?

Body positivity is a cultural movement that promotes the acceptance of bodies of all sizes and types, rather than those that conform to societal ideals of beauty. It places self-worth, self-acceptance, and an appreciation for one’s body as goals to achieve a happier, healthier attitude about oneself and others, focusing on who a person is rather than what they look like.
