Therapists near me in Saint Paul, MN

Let’s be real—life gets messy, and sometimes Googling your problems just isn’t cutting it anymore. I work with individuals 15 and up, navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, or that constant “what am I doing with my life?” loop. I earned my BSW in 2013 from Prairie View A&M University and my MSW in 2016 from Our Lady of the Lake University. I hold an LCSW in TX, MN, ND and TN, and have over 8 years of experience supporting individuals and families from all walks of life. I’m passionate about working with people of color, and I aim to create a supportive, affirming space where you feel seen and respected. If you’re ready to stop spinning your wheels, your path Back to Life starts here!
