Welcome! My hope is that if you are looking for a warm, empathetic, and caring therapist that I am the right support for you. Reaching out for support can sometimes be intimidating and uneasy, and I am here to walk you through the process and support you any way I can!

Everyone has a story, and I want to listen to yours. Encouraging hope, helping a person see their worth, and teaching them how to advocate for themselves drives my practice as a therapist. I will meet you where you are and help you reach your goals on your journey to finding hope, healing, and meaning in your life. I provide advocacy, care, and support for those seeking self-improvement, enduring crises and life's challenges, and those suffering from family and relationship conflict, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, grief and loss, OCD, PTSD, complex trauma, panic, interpersonal violence, and work or school-related stressors.

Welcome. :) Most of my clients are both intelligent, as well as somatically empathic. They care about growth towards greater health and balance, relationally and professionally. They often have traumatic backgrounds. From a body felt and practical sense, they would like to feel met, seen and valued, as is true of most all of us. I work from a calm, clear, non-judgmental posture, offering the gift of warm and fun, compassionate presence to you manifest your intentions. I am in my mid-50's, like to kayak, dance, read, write, swim, puzzle, and hang out seaside for sunrise, and lakeside for sunsets. I would love to support you soon.

My utmost priority is to assist you in reaching your goals and aspirations. I am dedicated to tailoring my approach to each individual, utilizing proven and effective treatment methods that are backed by solid evidence. With my extensive experience working with diverse clients from various backgrounds, I am well-equipped to provide a non-biased perspective and lend a compassionate ear. In today's fast-paced society, it is all too common for individuals to face their challenges alone when they don't have to. That's why I strive to create a therapeutic environment that fosters relaxation and ease.

I am continually amazed at the ability of the human spirit to heal. A traumatic event or the build-up of everyday living can feel overwhelming and you may become disconnected from the person you used to be. You sometimes find yourself coping with life in ways you never would have expected. Recognizing that your coping skills are no longer able to manage your stress is the first step. My clients work to rediscover, and often discover, the person they were meant to be. My joy comes from witnessing my clients move from being stuck to living fully.

Have you ever felt as though everything that you’ve planned for in your life is falling apart piece by piece? Sometimes when this is happening we feel as though we are alone. What if the answer is right in front of us and we just can’t find it? Sometimes it helps to have a second person, someone to walk the journey along side you, someone who won’t judge you but will walk with you side by side to help guide you to find that missing piece. I want to work with you where you are at and help you achieve the goals you want to achieve. Together as a team we will work step by step to achieve a happier and healthier life.

Children and adolescents need to know there is someone out there willing to sit and listen to what they are going through and have a support system in which to help them through a challenging time.

I believe that therapy is a partnership that allows me the opportunity to help guide you towards your own personal goals.

Did you know that there are only 4% of African American therapists in the United States and I fall into that category. As an LCSWA, I specialize in children's mental health concerns, with a focus on supporting young individuals in navigating their emotional well-being. While my primary expertise lies in children's mental health, I also have a strong foundation in working with adults. My dedication stems from a profound belief in the importance of providing culturally competent and relatable mental health support, particularly for underrepresented communities. I am committed to creating a safe space where individuals can thrive.

I primarily work with teenagers, older children, families, and young adults. I feel that adolescents have their entire future in front of them, and it is the most opportune time to learn positive thinking patterns, coping skills, and life strategies. Teenagers are at a pivotal point in their lives, facing many large life decisions. Having a neutral person to be open with in life is invaluable. I have worked with clients through many challenges such as (not limited to) depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, trauma, grief, self-harm, self-esteem, sexual identity, school struggles, behavioral/impulse challenges, and anger management.

Being lost, frustrated, overwhelmed, and exhausted can be a normal part of life; however, sometimes it becomes too much and too heavy for one person to carry alone. I am so glad that you are here.

Whether you are managing symptoms of grief and loss, experiencing issues faced by the LGBTQ+ community, or managing symptoms of anxiety and depression- I am here and I am passionate about supporting you through the issues that you are facing.
