Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first telehealth session, we’ll meet from the comfort of your own space and begin getting to know each other. I’ll ask a few gentle questions to understand what’s been on your mind and what you’re hoping to work through. There’s no need to prepare or be perfect, this is your time, and we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

What sets me apart is the way I combine deep clinical experience with a grounded, compassionate presence. With over 20 years in the field, I bring the wisdom of working in diverse settings, from hospitals and rehabilitation centers to prisons and private practice, which gives me a wide lens and deep understanding of human resilience. I take a holistic, individualized approach that honors the whole person mind, body, and spirit. I integrate both Western psychology and Eastern healing traditions, offering a flexible and culturally attuned space where you can truly feel seen and supported. As a Black woman and trauma specialist, I hold space with cultural humility, real-life understanding, and a commitment to helping you heal in a way that aligns with your truth, not just a diagnosis.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I specialize in working with adults who are ready to heal, grow, and reconnect with themselves. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or weighed down by the past, and are looking for a safe, supportive space to sort through it all. You might be a good fit to work with me if: You’ve experienced trauma—whether recent or from early in life—and are ready to process and heal in a gentle, compassionate environment. You’re a high-achiever or caregiver who’s feeling burned out, anxious, or emotionally drained, even though everything seems fine on the outside. You’re navigating life with both mental health and substance use challenges and need someone who understands how these struggles connect. You’re open to a holistic, mind-body approach that may include both traditional and integrative tools, blending Western psychology with Eastern-informed practices like mindfulness and somatic awareness. You want to work with a therapist who sees and affirms all of who you are—especially if you've felt overlooked, misunderstood, or marginalized in other spaces. As a Black woman and clinician, I hold space for the unique experiences of people navigating identity, intergenerational trauma, and systemic challenges. My approach is always rooted in cultural humility, respect, and empowerment. If you see yourself reflected here, I invite you to reach out. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.
