Hi, I am a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on identity transformation! I work with those who feel the achievements are there, yet still feels misaligned in what you do versus who you truly are. This identity crisis shows up in subtle ways - the anxiety that greets you before meetings, the exhaustion from maintaining the "strong Black woman" image, the longing for relationships where you can finally be real. I want you to know that transformation is possible. That having more alignment and authenticity in the way you show up is possible. In our work together, we'll move beyond just understanding why you code-switch or people-please and help your system find its way back to your truth using Internal Family Systems therapy. Imagine walking into any room fully grounded in who you are. Picture making decisions from your core self, not from old wounds. It's time to transform your relationship with yourself - to heal those outdated identities and create a life that truly feels like yours.
Our first session together we’ll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you are facing This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in the follow-up session. I will also invite you to ask any questions concerning the process and cover any administrative matters before transitioning into the work.
I help women gain clarity of what is happening within, the confidence to be truly who they are and the control to design the life they want. I understand that sometimes the fear of the process can get in the way. So we'll tackle fears and barriers that hinder the growth and healing process and create a personalized action plan for your healing.
