My therapeutic approach draws from family systems and narrative therapy.
Life’s circumstances can sometimes feel like a heavy burden, leaving us powerless to change our situation. My passion lies in building confidence and empowering individuals, couples and families. Every day, people grapple with stress, trauma, and challenging problems that can be overwhelming to face alone. I’m here to help you navigate these difficulties and discover sustainable solutions, allowing you to heal, thrive, and become your best self.

Other evidence-based approaches of interest include ERP (exposure and response prevention), IFS (Internal family systems), and ART (accelerated resolution therapy).
I believe in the importance of sharing knowledge about the mind-body relationship of trauma, panic, anxiety, and depression, to help my clients understand what they have been experiencing and why, and how to move forward. My specialties are school-aged children and adolescents and their families, and young adults, but I do trauma-focused therapy with all ages. My clinical interests include trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, and transitional stress, whether that be exploring or revealing sexuality and/or gender identity, developmental transitions, managing increasing expectations of early adulthood, or navigating life changes.

As a therapist I have provided therapeutic services over the last 14+ years to clients seeking additional support, experience, and expertise surrounding issues related to intimate and family relationship dynamics. Part of my work with clients has also included understanding the impact that Acute Stress and Trauma has on our lives and exploring how our Culture and Identity inform our individual and communal decision making. In addition, clients have also sought me out to work through past unresolved issues related to foster care and adoption, and ongoing stressors related to being a Black Woman.

Therapy can provide a powerful opportunity for self-understanding and balance restoration which ultimately leads to growth and emotional healing. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe and trusted space with clients to help them begin to identify problematic patterns and explore healthy, effective coping skills. My hope is this repairative process will facilitate change not just within the context of therapy but in all relationships and areas of a client's life. There are many issues we may explore in therapy: anxiety, depression, eating disorders, body image, grief/loss and life transitions among others.

Throughout life, people face various obstacles. These obstacles may feel overwhelming and sometimes, insurmountable. Working with a therapist who is a good fit is a magnificent strength to help during these times. I work to create a safe environment to foster development of healthy communication skills and emphasize how to utilize support systems and healthy coping skills. I have experience working with adolescents in a school setting, in day treatment, in group therapy, and in an outpatient individual treatment setting. I have also worked with adults in a day treatment setting in addition to outpatient therapy.

Understanding that it can be difficult to take this step to wellness, I believe it is important to establish a trusting therapeutic relationship with the client as without this, it can be difficult to help implement change. I also believe that helping clients see their potential to implement change and resolve their issues is very empowering. Each client holds that potential within and they need encouragement and support as they begin to discover this and come to resolutions. Some clients may believe that their issues define who they are and stuggle to separate the two. New confidence can change this.

Family Systems Therapists
Family Systems therapists view problems within the family as the result not of particular members' behaviors, but of the family's group dynamic. The family is seen as a complex system having its own language, roles, rules, beliefs, needs and patterns. The therapist helps each individual member understand how their childhood family operated, their role in that system, and how that experience has shaped their role in the current family.
