My goal is to provide support and guide those who are ready to take the journey of a life well lived. I work with adolescents and adults facing an array of concerns including: ADHD, anxiety, chronic illness, communication barriers, compassion fatigue, depression, grief and loss, imposter syndrome, personal goals and development, professional growth, PTSD, racial identity issues, relationship challenges, self-esteem, spirituality/energy and various forms of trauma. You will be the driving force throughout our time together and with commitment and consistency, I believe you will achieve everything you hope and envision for yourself.
I provide client-centered care through a strength-based, solution-focused lens with special emphasis focused on mindfulness and equity, race and social justice. Some of the modalities that I refer to in my practice are Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Somatic Therapy techniques.
I am committed to my own embodiment of wellness and personally reflect many of your needs and wants so I understand it's importance in your life. As a mixed-race woman, I hold a unique perspective in the value of collaborative efforts in establishing healthy habits so you can build the armor needed to survive as well as the tools to thrive.
