I work collaboratively with a diverse group of teens and young adults who want to engage in self-discovery and change. I work with individuals who have had difficulty conquering life challenges and experiences that continue to impact their mental health and living the life they want. My collaborative and holistic approach focuses on skills, self-exploration, and observing how identities, day-to-day routines, family, and society impact life difficulties. Together I will work with you on observing thoughts and behaviors to create change and a life worth living.

Navigating transitionary periods, relationships, identity, and feelings of loneliness, guilt, or shame can be overwhelmingly difficult to manage, not including additional stressors surrounding large family dynamics and conflicts. I am here to support individuals, the BIPOC community, people looking for support in foster and adoption trauma, identity, self-worth, and feelings of fear of failure. I am here to offer support to teens, couples, young adults, and individuals looking to feel validated and heard as we work together to help you navigate the challenges and stressors in your life.

I enjoy supporting families facing parenting challenges, as well as the unique gifts and experiences of parenting children with special needs. I also enjoy working with adolescents and young adults who are struggling with life transitions, managing relationships, school concerns, anxiety, and depression. Additionally, I have significant experience working with individuals in the adoption triad, as well as those considering or in the midst of the adoption process, and following placement transition. It is common for families to experience increased stress, grief, and challenges related to trauma and attachment.

Have you spent countless hours searching for a therapist, counselor or coach? Are you looking for someone who has both personal and professional experiences addressing mental health disorders, prolonged and generational trauma, knowledge of the systemic injustices within our education and criminal justice systems? I’ve found honoring one’s whole intersectional identity can help navigate the oppressive implications of societal norms on vibrant, but systematically minoritized groups. While it can be a rare occurrence to find someone with these perspectives, your search can finally come to an end.

On the outside you look like you've got it completely together, but inside you're struggling. Perhaps you are self-critical, disconnected from others, or stuck in a job that is not the right fit. Or maybe you are enduring a painful dynamic in your relationship with your romantic partner, parent, child, friend, or co-worker. If any of these resonate, self-exploration can help you discover the root cause of your shame, loneliness, disconnection, existential angst, and stagnation. With help, you can cultivate a kinder relationship with yourself, deeper connections with others, and a more meaningful life at work and beyond.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with 40+ years of experience. I have written, presented, and consulted extensively about diversity, developmental psychology, multiculturalism, severe psychopathology, childhood abuse, trauma, sexual assault, community/domestic violence and African-American mental health. I believe everyone has a right to wellness & use strategies that promote humor, hard work, experiential learning resilience. There is a saying: "You do not have to teach a cut how to heal, you just have to create the best environment for healing to take place." My goal is to create a loving space for healing to take place.

How did you get here? Do you feel shame and embarrassment about your circumstances? Are you stuck in rigid thought patterns that manifest as perfectionism, procrastination, or apathy? Many of my clients have endured painful traumatic events and ongoing invalidation throughout their lives, leading to difficulties in recognizing and managing intense emotions. This sometimes results in decisions or behaviors that later cause regret. Imagine looking back on past experiences with clarity, acknowledging their impact without allowing them to define your present or future. There is a path to learning, healing, and creating lasting change.

You try to talk about something important to you and somehow it becomes a fight. How can this person you love and built your life with feel like such a stranger sometimes? Does it have to be this hard? To others, it seems like you have the perfect life and relationship. They’d be surprised to know the truth. When one or both of your buttons are pushed, things go off the rails. You know you love each other deeply and both want a solid and healthy relationship – but when these conflicts happen, you feel so disconnected and hopeless that you question whether you’ll ever be able to truly resolve things and find a deep connection again.

Opening for 2 clients (online). I specialize in helping college students who feel they are not “enough” or should be different or perfect. They often feel invisible, unappreciated, and end up in "toxic" relationships. Do you give your kindness and compassion to others but not yourself? If you're willing to feel all the feelings and be vulnerable, you can challenge the "shoulds" in your mind and learn to accept and celebrate your authentic self. You can correct unhealthy relationship patterns (even with yourself), assert good boundaries, and practice self-compassion. Life is hard enough without you being so hard on yourself!

I help men and women handle breakups or relationship difficulties, cope with being single, navigate dating, create healthy relationships, manage anger/ frustration, deal with depression, explore adoptee issues, and adapt to change or loss. I serve families with children who are pushing boundaries, fighting with or blaming others, worrying excessively, yelling/talking back, lacking appropriate social skills or have poor self-esteem. I also work with adoptive families who are concerned about their adopted child's "problem" behaviors, difficulties adjusting, or challenges in connecting with others.
