I'm a Black therapist located in the Houston Galleria area.
Change can be scary. With change comes new beginnings, new responsibilities, and new relationships; which can be overwhelming. You tend to question, "Am I good enough," "Am I ready," and "Will I be accepted?" These negative thought loops can cause anxiousness. This way of thinking can cause you to avoid thriving forward and reaching your full potential. It can also keep you from meeting amazing people and experiencing the good things in life.

My practice focus is the unique experiences of Black women.
I believe that everyone has the capacity to accomplish their goals. My role is to help you uncover and understand the obstacles and trauma that are getting in the way of achieving what you desire, and then help you tap into your inner resources to succeed. With empathy and authenticity, I work alongside my clients to promote healing and discovery of their power to change. Whether you are experiencing symptoms related to anxiety, depression, grief and loss; problems with relationships, parenting, or self-esteem; or a general sense of disconnectedness – whatever it is – I recognize that therapy is self-work, and it's not easy.

This has allowed me to live within three different cultures throughout my life; the Deaf culture, the Hearing culture, and the African-American culture.
Day by day life teaches us something new about ourselves and how we adjust to the obstacles that emerge in front of us. Overall wellness is often a process, one in which we may have the desire to pursue but lack the skillset to achieve. I strive to come along side of you in your pursuit to invest in yourself and mental wellbeing. Engaging in counseling services is an excellent way to deepen your self-awareness, and explore what you truly are capable of accomplishing in your life.

Are you looking for an inclusive, culturally aware, and relationally focused therapist? Many of the concerns that clients bring up in therapy often involve challenges related to their various identities (e.g., race/ethnicity, gender, sexuality, body size, etc.) and/or the quality of their relationships.

My favorite quote is: "You find peace not by rearranging the circumstances of your life but by realizing who you are at the deepest level." Therapy is a great space to foster curiosity about yourself and the origins of thought patterns, beliefs and behaviors. I call myself the "Under the Iceberg Therapist" meaning I like to help clients that want to explore deeper issues that go beyond the surface as I believe that is where true healing happens. Some of the modalities used are narrative therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy and somatic therapy/mindfulness.

Therapy does not mean “Failure”. However, it is a manner to help clients overcome their problems safely, effectively, and became the better version of themselves. There are many reasons for people to seek out counseling — grief, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and relationships are among the most common; however, they do not know the best course of action to take. Sometimes you might need an unbiased viewpoint to put things into perspective. Allow me to help you embrace life adaptively.
