The truth will set you free"... I became a therapist because I believe that through relationship, listening, and talking, a tremendous amount of healing can take place in a person's life. I believe in people and the potential for change and growth in their lives. I see therapy as a partnership in facilitating that change. I help people to free themselves from various things that hold them down, guilt, anger, shame, addictions, anxiety... I attempt to help people establish a more solid foundation of self worth, balance, love and flexibility to be able to negotiate the world, their relationships and themselves more successfully.

As someone who has experienced Tourette's and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, I understand how influential our mental health is and how life changing it is to seek treatment. Although discussing your emotions with someone is never an easy decision, I am here to help you grow and heal through the discomfort. I specialize in working with anxiety (with particular expertise in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Tourette's Disorder) and depression, using multiple methods for treatment. I also have multicultural familiarity, and have worked well with clients of different backgrounds.

I listen with an open mind and work collaboratively with you to develop your own personal wisdom and achieve lasting, meaningful change. My approach is psychoanalytic, which means I'm equally interested in the events of your day-to-day life, your personal history, your interior experience and how these aspects of your story relate to each other.

My ideal client wants something better, has no idea what "better" is or looks like, and has no idea where to start. They are still determining if they are ready to start or commit to that change. What they need is a person and a space to figure it out. Deep down, they know where they are right now can be better, whether in relationships, emotions, daily habits, major life goals, or anything in-between. But, most importantly, they want a space where they can process and grow from that place and build a sustainable life.

I feel it is an honor and privilege to serve as a therapist. Creating a partnership with clients, I work to provide a safe, warm, nurturing and empathic space. My goal as an EMDR therapist is to work collaboratively with clients- creating transformative healing and change, and increasing self understanding and self compassion. I currently have availability for intensive EMDR- individually tailored (half, full or multi day therapy) in person at my Philadelphia location or online (PA and NJ residents).

I am continually honored to bear witness to healing as I support individuals and groups as they strengthen the relationship to themselves, others, and communities. I believe that healing occurs in therapy when there is a safe and trusting connection between the therapist and client. I strive to support the person sitting with me through listening with empathy and no judgments. My therapeutic style is integrative; I work with each person to find an approach that meets their needs. In doing so I draw on a variety of approaches including relational, client-centered, supportive counseling, mindfulness-based, and cognitive behavioral.

Therapy can be such an overwhelming process to get started with, especially when you may also be struggling with ADHD, trauma symptoms, or anxiety that make everyday tasks feel monumental. For marginalized people in particular, feeling safe and truly seen by their therapist may be particularly challenging. As a Black, queer, neurodivergent therapist with 10 years experience, my approach is relational, strengths-based, person-centered, affirming, and anti-oppressive. Together we'll implement accessible, functional strategies to help you close the gap between the life you're living and the life you envision for yourself.

Are you struggling to feel understood in relationships, at work, or in other areas of your life? Does anxiety hold you back? Are you looking for help with communication, emotion regulation, or completing tasks? I believe that therapy works best when the therapist provides empathy, supportive guidance, and the environment needed in order for you to feel safe working through challenges and being vulnerable at times. I balance providing helpful in-the-moment strategies for coping, managing anxiety, etc with deeper work exploring the possible roots of the issues. For those who struggle with sleep, I offer CBT for Insomnia (CBT-I).

You want something different, but it’s hard to motivate and place what that really is. You are sensitive, creative, queer, thoughtful, and full of so many thoughts. You likely have a habit of overextending yourself in the hopes of finding where you feel you belong. You see patterns in your relationships that you want to examine and change, and some part of you knows that you deserve a more satisfying life. Therapy is a non-judgmental space in which you can overcome familiar patterns by being witnessed and heard, and acquire tools to improve your relationship with yourself and others.

Do you truly believe you’re enough? I help clients affirm their values, needs, identities and self-worth. Many clients seek to address: fear of intimacy or abandonment, indecision or regret, a lack of creativity/motivation, people-pleasing and boundary-setting, perfectionism and imposter syndrome, self-comparison, and more. Blocking their path forward to self-acceptance/assurance is often insecurity or shame rooted in social stigmas, internalized oppression, or family trauma. We often discuss the emotional aspects of their concerns (e.g., self-talk about who they “should” be), then try out new coping skills and set well-paced goals.
