Personal growth and overcoming emotional and mental challenges can feel like immovable obstacles. These obstacles may be related to work, family, intimate relationships, societal and cultural pressures, discrimination, racism or other traumas. The challenges can cause several symptoms like anxiety, sadness, isolation, anger, defensiveness, low self-esteem and suicidal thoughts. Unfortunately, we weren't all afforded the opportunity to learn healthy coping skills to manage these symptoms, nor how to recognize or recover from them. Furthermore, discussing personal challenges may have been discouraged, especially outside of the home.

As a Black, female clinician, I understand these challenges and the associated fear and pain. As such, I collaborate with my clients along their journey to healing. In addition to talking through challenges, I introduce techniques and deeper insight to help conquer symptoms and provide my clients with secure emotional support in a non-judgmental environment.

If you can relate to these challenges or symptoms and my approach seems like a good fit, please contact me for additional information. I look forward to hearing from you!

I also specialize in treating survivors of narcissistic abuse and toxic relationships.
