Congratulations on taking the difficult, but brave, step to research options for support! I am here to act as a GPS on your journey to self actualization - whether you currently find yourself in the packing stage, are determining your destination, or you're looking to discover "how did I end up here?' My passion and my training work to aid you in defining your truths and walking boldly in them. Wellness is achieved when you can look at your worn-out shoes and esteem them for getting you this far instead of forever cursing the road that damaged them. Be well.
I specialize in: empowerment and acceptance of neurodiversity; mood disorders, including post-partum depression and the baby blues; couples counseling; and trauma. However, I have experience treating and working with a varied array of obstacles to mental health. I treat individuals, couples, and I also offer targeted group therapy.
I am an African American therapist who offers culturally competent and compassionate counseling rooted in your strengths. I am unshakeable in my belief that your strengths provide the instructions to build the life you choose, and I also recognize that choosing can feel terrifying. Whatever phase you are in, I am here to support.
