I commend you for taking a step toward your growth. With over 12 years of experience, I specialize in working exclusively with women, providing brief, solution-focused therapy to help identify strengths, set clear goals, and create meaningful change. I offer a culturally sensitive and compassionate space for women to heal, with services available in both English and Haitian Creole. Growth takes time, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to get started.

Get to know me

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

I take a down-to-earth, compassionate, and conversational approach to therapy for women, creating a space where you can feel heard and understood without judgment. While I offer guidance and practical tools, I also follow your lead and respect your pace throughout the process. Each session is designed to be a supportive space where women can show up as they are and feel genuinely listened to.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My approach is warm, culturally sensitive, collaborative and is designed specifically for women. I integrate evidence-based practices such as CBT within a compassionate, conversational style that fosters safety, understanding, and empowerment. Therapy is tailored to each woman’s pace and goals, with a focus on building practical skills and supporting meaningful, lasting change.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I’m best positioned to support individuals who are ready for change and looking for practical, goal-oriented therapy. My clients often feel stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about their next steps, and want clarity, direction, and relief in a shorter timeframe. Together, we focus on identifying your strengths, clarifying your goals, and developing actionable strategies that fit your life. If you’re motivated to build on what’s already working, open to new perspectives, and looking for meaningful progress, not perfection; this approach can be a strong fit.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that create disconnection. I help recognize how beliefs and assumptions impact emotions and communication, and we work together to reframe these patterns in a way that promotes empathy, trust, and healthier interaction. Using CBT, I support you in building emotional awareness, improving conflict resolution skills, and strengthening connection through practical, solution-focused strategies.

Strength-Based

I take a strengths-based approach, helping you recognize and build on the resilience and insight you already have. I provide a supportive space to explore patterns, gain clarity, and move toward your goals. Whether you’re navigating stress, anxiety, or life transitions, we’ll focus on strengthening self-awareness, improving emotional regulation, and developing practical strategies for lasting change.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

I use a solution-focused brief therapy approach that prioritizes clear goals, present challenges, and actionable steps. Our work is structured and forward-looking, focusing on what can change now and steps that can be taken now to make changes. Together, we identify practical strategies, track progress, and make adjustments to help you achieve meaningful results in a shorter timeframe.
