My communication style

My communication style is honest and transparent, ensuring that our work together is grounded in authenticity and mutual trust. When challenges arise, you can expect me to remain thoughtful and compassionate, providing a supportive presence as we work through difficulties together.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey began helping Hurricane Katrina survivors rebuild their lives, which sparked my compassion and desire to support others facing challenges. In graduate school, I worked with inner-city youth navigating self-identity, relationships, and life transitions, inspiring my dedication to guide growth and celebrate progress.

My goals for you

A key part of successful therapy is building a supportive, collaborative connection. I help clients define goals that are meaningful, whether strengthening relationships, boosting self-esteem, or pursuing other personal objectives. As goals shift, we adjust the plan, work step by step, track progress, and celebrate achievements.

Our first session

Our first session is a time to get acquainted and focus on what brought you here. We’ll discuss your goals, review how sessions will work, and answer any questions you may have. This is a safe, supportive space designed to help you feel comfortable and heard. Early sessions are low-pressure and focused on comfort, connection, and clarity.
