Tired of being tired? I get that. Always having to be strong can be exhausting. Overwhelmed, excessive worry, lack of interest, irritability, and procrastination are just a few things I hear from Black women in therapy. Together in therapy we can address those feelings and work towards your goals and improved mental health.
As a therapist, I strive to make therapy a safe and open space for clients to share, process, and ultimately grow. Utilizing a holistic approach, I specialize in treating Black women experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. I combine the history of Black people in America along with mental health techniques to address mind and body disconnection.
Navigating work, family, health, and relationships is a lot to handle and then add racial and gender issues, that can be too much! Come to therapy with a black therapist that understands you. With me we will share a space of empathy and connection free of racism, sexism, and micro-aggressions. The best way to reach me is through email or message.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
