My communication style

The tone I create is calm, grounded, and real. Clients feel safe to be themselves without judgment, but also know they'll be challenged when needed. You'll have space to process thoughts and emotions while being held accountable to your goals in a supportive, collaborative dynamic focused on clarity and purpose.

My journey to mental healthcare

Witnessing the impact of severe mental illness within my own family inspired my career as a therapist. I'm driven by the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals and families facing similar challenges, promoting healing, reducing stigma, and fostering hope and resilience.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting as a collaborative, evolving process. We start by building trust and clarity, identifying what brings you to therapy and what you'd like to change. We define clear, realistic goals aligned with your values, revisiting and adjusting them as needed to stay relevant to your growth.

Our first session

In our first session, we’ll take time to understand what’s bringing you in and what you want to get out of therapy. I’ll also share more about how I work so you can determine if it feels like a good fit. From there, we’ll begin building a clear direction for our work together.

I identify as...

• Female
• Black or African American
