I support Black, Indigenous, and Women of Color through healing and meaningful life transitions. As a bicultural therapist and child of Eritrean immigrants, I bring clinical expertise and lived experience, with deep understanding of the complexity of identity, ambition, and belonging. My work is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and rooted in empathy. I create a supportive, nonjudgmental space for women who are navigating self-doubt, career transitions, creative blocks, or emotional wounds, and are ready to move forward with clarity and confidence. Together, we break through internal and external barriers, strengthen relationships, and build lives aligned with your values, vision, and purpose.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, we'll begin with brief introductions, review your goals and screening results, and explore the specific challenges you're facing. This will allow me to create a personalized plan to guide our work together in future sessions.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I bring a warm, patient, and nonjudgmental approach, offering a space where your feelings and experiences are validated and affirmed. While I listen deeply and stay attuned to your emotions, I am also firm when needed, helping you stay grounded and focused on your goals. I offer insights with care and ask permission before sharing advice, creating a supportive environment where you can feel encouraged to show up as your true, whole self.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I work best with clients who are curious, open to reflection and feedback, and motivated to create meaningful change in their lives.
Brainspotting
Brainspotting is a tool that helps us find and focus on deeply stored emotions and experiences that are hard to reach with just our thoughts or words. It allows us to process and release these feelings, even when they're out of conscious awareness, helping to heal emotional and physical symptoms that might have been lingering for a long time.
Somatic
By exploring how physical tension and sensations reflect emotional experiences, somatic therapy helps you release trauma stored in the body. I often use techniques like breathing exercises, meditation, and visualization to calm the body’s stress response, promoting deeper healing and balance.
