Get to know me

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

In the first session, clients can expect a warm and welcoming environment where they can share their concerns and goals. We will discuss their background, current challenges, and what they hope to achieve through our work together. I'll also explain my approach and the tools we might use. This initial session is primarily about building rapport, understanding their needs, and laying the groundwork for future sessions. Clients should leave feeling hear, validated, and with a clear sense of the path forward.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strengths are my ability to create a safe space where clients feel heard and understood. My own experiences and awareness of the unique challenges faced by women. Lastly, my ability to help clients identify practical strategies to overcome anxiety, depression, and career challenges.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I'm best positioned to serve women particularly women of color or those who identify as Black or African American. These clients are often eager to improve their lives but may feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, career challenges, and interpersonal conflicts. They seek a supportive space to explore their experiences, gain practical tools, and develop strategies for personal growth and empowerment. By addressing cultural and societal factors, I ca provide tailored guidance that resonates with their unique perspectives and needs.
