We want to feel safe, secure and connected to ourselves, our families/friends and our communities. Obstacles to doing so can include circumstances outside of our control and also the results of our own learned patterns and behaviors. Therapy is an integral part of healing past trauma, validating one's thoughts/feelings/emotions, identifying dysfunctional patterns of engagement and learning new skills to cope. Through work with a therapist, it is possible to shape a life and relationships that include confidence, calm and presence that is so often missed in the busyness of society today.

"If you are a therapist and you're not acknowledging how systems of oppression and intersectionality impact mental health, then you're likely centering supremacy and whiteness in your work." -Dr. Ebony

Are you ready to begin therapy? There comes a pivotal point in our lives we begin to start questioning our decisions and thoughts, the interactions we have in our intimate/platonic relationships, and/or why we feel "stuck". It often leads us to have difficulty regulating our daily thoughts, feelings, and emotions. The experience of hardships and emotional pain follow us like our own shadow contributing to the way we think, feel, and behave. I firmly believe early childhood experiences, complex and secondary trauma, daily stressors/challenges, and life adjustments shape who we are as individuals and how we relate to others.

I believe in the process of change and will help my clients to move in a positive direction. I believe that change is a process and depends on an individual's needs and where an individual is with relation to the stages of change. I believe that I can help you overcome your obstacles. I have received my Postpartum Support International Certificate Training in Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorder with hopes to help this particular population. She has also had many years of experience working with the developmentally disabled population.

Do you ever find yourself feeling worried all of the time? Do you feel sad and/or feel as if you have little to no energy? Do you find it difficult to interact with others? Have you experienced trauma and feel things are still unresolved? Do you ever just feel "stuck" in life? As captains of our journeys, things can become overwhelming. Anxiety, depression and so many other issues can arise and cause us to feel debilitated. Let us learn how to develop the skills and techniques to be the captains we choose to be. Let us embark on the journey of life together.

You want to feel happy, free and vibing...(ya I did just say that!) but are struggling to get there on your own. Maybe you related to Ted Lasso when he had a panic attack at a football game and had to walk away; you may have thought "omg samee!" Or maybe you relate to the main character in Never Have I Ever, trying to heal after a traumatic year but your thoughts and feelings keep getting in the way. Guilt, shame, fear (is a liar by the way), sadness, excessive worry, anger, unresolved hurt...all these are very human emotions and there is hope! And if you're a person of faith, guess what, you can have Jesus AND a therapist!
