My communication style

I communicate with warmth and directness, and I won't sugarcoat things, but I will always deliver honesty with respect. Sessions feel like a genuine conversation rather than a clinical interview. I encourage questions, check in often about what's working, and make space for humor when it fits naturally.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey began as a behavior technician in a middle school, where I discovered a gift for helping people feel seen, especially the mothers I worked alongside. That led me to graduate school, and 16 years later, I still love supporting women and minority groups as much as ever.

My goals for you

I work with clients to set clear, realistic goals rooted in what matters most to them, then break those goals into practical steps we track together each session. I follow up consistently on progress and homework, adjust the plan as life changes, and celebrate movement forward, even the small wins.

Our first session

In our first session, I give you space to be heard, whether that means venting or just settling in, while also gathering the background I need to understand your story. From there, we work together to identify what matters most to you and start shaping the direction of our work.

I identify as...

• Female
• Black or African American
• Spiritual
