We work with individuals, families, and children. We specialize in trauma including generational trauma, perinatal, immigrants, parent-child relationship issues, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and family conflict. Our greatest intention is to help you understand yourself better and improve your quality of life and relationships. We tailor our approach to the needs of each person or family, responding to your unique problems, identities, and realities. This is not a one-size-fits-all practice because we are trauma-informed and social-emotional focused practices from a social justice framework.
As a growing group of Black clinicians, we are experienced in supporting your needs. By providing a safe and thoughtful environment, we collaborate with you to develop a deeper understanding of who you are and what you want to gain from therapy. From EMDR, to PCIT to Expressive Therapies, we support what you need.
We know first hand that it can be tremendously scary to seek help whether for yourself or for a child that you love. You are already making such huge step in your process by reviewing therapist profiles. Schedule your free consultation with our Admin Assistant, today!

Patients who are struggling with potential trauma symptoms, anxiety, parenting needs, young parent-child relationship concerns and perinatal concerns should definitely contact us. Most of our patients see a gradual relief from symptoms within the first eight sessions, thought trauma therapy often takes a bit longer for lasting recovery.
