(he/him)
My clients have laughed, cried, practiced new things, and worked very, very hard. The only thing I ask, as a therapist, is to have hope and do the work. Each client is a functioning part of a larger whole that wants to stay the same. I see no sense in blaming a person for situations they did not create; it's what each person does that counts.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Drawing from my training at Howard University and Covenant Seminary, I bring a unique blend of family systems therapy, cognitive processing therapy, and interpersonal therapy to our sessions. My style is deliberately calm and measured, creating a space where careful reflection can flourish. Whether you're dealing with: - Family conflict and communication challenges - Anxiety or depression affecting your relationships - ADHD impacts on your personal connections - LGBTQ+ related family dynamics - Self-esteem concerns influencing your relationships - Impulse control affecting your family life I provide the tools, insights, and support you need to become a more effective "relator" in all your relationships.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
In a world that often seems to favor extroversion and quick connections, do you find yourself craving deeper, more authentic relationships? As a thoughtful person, you may notice the subtle complexities in family dynamics that others miss, yet feel uncertain about how to bridge the gaps that exist. Whether it's understanding your partner's love language, navigating challenging conversations with parents, or building stronger bonds with your children, the path to meaningful connections isn't always clear. As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor specializing in family relationships, I understand the unique challenges that introspective individuals face. You might be wondering if there's a way to honor your thoughtful nature while still creating the close family relationships you desire. Perhaps you've read relationship books, tried communication strategies, or even attended workshops, but still feel something's missing. This is where my expertise comes in – I help introspective individuals like you navigate the complexities of their most important connections. By combining your natural ability for deep reflection with proven therapeutic approaches, we can work together to transform your family relationships while staying true to who you are.

Cognitive Processing (CPT)
Do the memories still hurt? Do you wish you could be fully present with your loved ones without the effort of keeping the past at bay? Cognitive Processing Therapy requires you to be 100% in the very difficult process, so you can be 100% present with your friends and family.
Interpersonal
When life feels like a wasteland of loneliness and a never-ending avalanche of tasks with no resources, a therapist using interpersonal therapy can help you to see the resources you do have, the relationships that are still there and give you support in accessing what you need, when you need it.
