Therapy is a space to explore your thoughts and emotions, practice new skills, understand your purpose, and become the best version of yourself. We all have moments where we reach a problem and we ask ourselves "How do I get through this?" or "What should I do?" In my work, I place emphasis on resiliency, hope, and discovering solutions that work in your life. My clinical experience includes treatment of depression, anxiety and assisting with difficult life transitions. I am passionate about providing a safe, healing space for communities of color.
My approach to therapy is Solution - Focused, Collaborative and Client-Centered to support you overcoming the challenges that keep you feeling stuck. Whether it is the pandemic, depression, anxiety, family conflict, self-esteem issues, social injustice; having a safe space and opportunity to move towards healing is what therapy can provide.
It is a courageous choice to seek therapy and I strive towards making therapy a meaningful, healing experience. I invite you to call for a free 15 minute phone consultation before we schedule your first appointment. Online booking is also available.
