Having to be strong, tough, and on all the time can be draining. Compound all of that with having to do it while hiding your emotions can be doubly stressful. Black men are raised to be resilient and silent, to take what life throws at you without complaining “Just Man Up!”. Being raised to be strong was the message. Weakness is not to be shown or felt. Now when you’re upset or overwhelmed you have nowhere to turn for help.

I would be honored to be part of the journey of your life, and believe all people need unconditional support to live as contently as possible. My specialties are depressed/mood disorders age 16+, surviving chronic illness, alone and as a family unit, and ADHD/ASD (I'm neurodiverse). I pride myself in working amazingly with young adults & helping those with low self-esteem, dark thoughts, mood swings, self harm/SI.

Please honor yourself by making some time for your growth, and seeking encouragement to be a better you!

I strive to create a comfortable and inviting environment so I can hear one's life story, goals, heartaches and tough life decisions. I have a deep understanding and love for all things LOVE. Love within a family system, love within a marriage, and love within one's self. Unfortunately love isn't always enough. I enjoy working with adolescents, college students, adults, couples/marriage counseling, parenting and family therapy. My interests include adolescents, marital and relationship problems, communication skills, anxiety and depressive disorders, life transitions, coping skills, emotional disturbance, peer relationships, self-harming, self-esteem building, and family conflicts.

Sometimes life becomes overwhelming. Everyone struggles with issues of wellness and mental health from time to time. Maybe you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, or past trauma. These problems can take over everyday life and contribute to other issues like internet addictions, relationship difficulties, and more. Many of my clients have found that old coping skills aren’t working anymore. They need new strategies that actually make a difference. I help people better understand how they got to where they are, and how they can cultivate a life that focuses on balance, peace, and overall wellness.

Integrity. Respect. Confidentiality. These are values I live by personally and professionally. The therapeutic process is based on trust; without trust, the therapist and client will only touch upon the shallowest issues. I am proud to demonstrate the highest level of respect for clients and their concerns. My experience in working with clients who differ from me in terms of gender, race, ethnicity, citizenship, political persuasion, intellectual ability, religion, sexual orientation, and economic status has been positive. Helping clients feel comfortable enough with me to engage in the treatment process is of the utmost importance.

I have a passion for working with couples by improving communication to reduce conflict. I help couples understand how their history has impacted who they are today. Using a solution focused approach and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, we will explore unconscious triggers, unmet needs and gain a deeper understanding of our behavioral responses. While working on guided communication exercises, the couple will learn effective ways to express their needs and develop appropriate behavioral responses during conflict.

As your therapist, I hope to facilitate greater self-awareness through your life experiences that lead to increased confidence, self-esteem, independence, overall health, and the capacity to effectively navigate the complex challenges of life. I love working with those who are truly ready to dig in and explore who they are; ready to put in the work necessary to make lasting changes in their life. My approach will provide you with methods to solve problems, utilizing your own strengths and respecting who you are as an individual.

Sometimes it just feels so crippling when anxiety/depression or stress of life has a grip on your world. When you've tried everything and nothing seems to help and nobody seems to really understand what it takes to just get out of bed and function it can feel so hopeless. Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) might be another option. Ketamine has been shown to quickly reduce depressive and anxious symptoms in hours rather than weeks and can "supercharge" the therapeutic process. For many clients, this approach feels like the breakthrough they've been searching for.

I would like to take the opportunity to welcome you to a place of healing and growth. One of the leading principles that guide my practice is helping you rediscover your personal power to direct your own life in a meaningful and healthy way. So many different types of hardships can rob a person from recognizing their personal power. They can come to believe they have no choices. Trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, abuse, loss, illness, addiction and other hardships can cause a person to live day to day in an endless cycle of struggle. Common life stressors like college, job, divorce, or retirement can be hard to manage as well.
