I know for many people, myself included, asking for help can be a scary and vulnerable thing to do. However, I believe seeking help demonstrates bravery. Vulnerability does not make us weak; in fact, it makes us strong and courageous. It is my desire to work with individuals and assist them in their personal growth. I use many forms of therapy, but Cognitive Behavioral therapy is my most commonly used approach. I want to increase my clients' self-awareness. It is my goal to help individuals develop healthier thinking and behavioral patterns in order to improve the ways they view themselves and interact with others.

I help Black Women, who self-identify as independent or hyper-independent, find safety in healthy relationships. Your wounds from past relationships may have been nurtured, instead of healed, to help you to show up as your own version of strength and not experience hurt and pain again. If you have embodied independence as a badge of honor, you have to learn a new version of strength to help in connecting with others. Our biggest opportunities for growth is in relationship with others. When you are triggered to run, shut down, fight, or people-please, it's for protection of self, but...

When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade? Is it really that easy? I would argue no, life throws things our way that we aren't always prepared for or have the skills to handle. As a counselor, my hope and drive is to help people who have been given lemons learn how to make lemonade. Learning how to handle anxiety, stress, depression and trauma can be overwhelming and exhausting. My goal is to be a warm supportive person so that you feel comfortable as we work through your life's stressors. I desire to create an environment that is welcoming and non-judgemental to both children and adults as we work through life's stressors.

Book with me now by clicking on "my website". I have recently decided to change my focus from being a "general" counselor to specializing in Anxiety and Relationship issues. I use a combination of approaches to include cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, skill development, problem solving and learning to gain control over the physiological effects of anxiety. I have experience working with veterans, couples and high school and college students who are dealing with life transitions.

Why me? Why did/do I have to experience ____, be born with _____, and ultimately live with _____???? You've probably tried everything you know; positivity, praying, ignoring or burying the feelings, talking about the experience, maladaptive behaviors (shopping, sex, substances, ANYTHING to keep your mind off of what is), and you may have even tried therapy. Either way, you're here now which means something in you believes it is time and you are ready for positive change. You decide the destination or goal and I walk alongside you on the journey. Through reiki and/or therapy, we can get where you want to be. Healthy..why NOT you?

Hi All :) I'll be upfront that my approach to counseling in general is a bit unorthodox. While I favorably tailor treatment to the client, (I'd like to think) I make the experience a little less clinical and a little more relaxed. Whether you're looking to cut back on a substance, or working towards complete abstinence, I'll collaborate with you to explore your goals, wants, and how we can get there together. I generally adopt a harm reduction approach, utilizing techniques such as motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral therapy; however, learning about your relationship to the drug is where I like to begin.
