My passion is helping WOC navigate the space of authenticity and transitioning by coping with anxiety-provoking thoughts (because higher functioning anxiety is real) and strategically helping them create success and a lifestyle they desire. They no longer have to live up to a life plan that doesn’t fulfill them anymore. Let's create a plan and get clear! I have a conversational approach to therapy. I desire for my clients to be comfortable so that they are able to go through the therapeutic process without hesitation. I'm honest, direct, and caring. I'm also here to hold a safe, authentic, nonjudgmental space where we collaborate on your new professional and personal development goals.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
At then end of sessions you will have more clarity and a sense of peace. This will be done by: educating you on how to shift your mindset about false narratives, controlling anxiety provoking thoughts, identifying what makes you happy and aiding you in creating a plan to attain it, identifying your authentic self, increasing your knowledge of emotional intelligence, aiding you in becoming comfortable with change and decision making, and improving communication/boundaries.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
Cognitive Processing Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strengths Perspective Therapy, Problem Solving Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Accountability, Authenticity, & Acceptance (Self) I have been a therapist over a decade and I also have my PhD in higher educational leadership and research. I started my private practice after years working within higher education and working within community agencies once I saw a need not being met with women who looked like me. I help African American female entrepreneurs and C-Suite Executives evolve into the person they believe isn't possible or truly believe can not exist based on her current state in life. I'm also here to inform her that success doesn't make you happy, neither does communicating passively aggressively, nor living up to a life plan that no longer fulfills her. So if you have goals in life, GREAT! But let's make sure they make sense towards the life you desire.
