My communication style

My main goal is to allow you a space of comfort. I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to have the space to be uniquely yourself. If we're working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient.

My journey to mental healthcare

My passion for mental health started with substance use after seeing family and community members struggling with the cycle of addiction and incarceration. I have had the opportunity to provide crisis intervention and therapy to dually diagnosed individuals. These experiences have shown me the positivity of therapy in recovery and mental wellness.

My goals for you

I believe that you should be a part of your process. Together, we'll identify and set goals that matter to you. As we work together, your goals may evolve as you gain new insights. We can adapt our plan at any time to ensure it's always meaningful and relevant to your needs and wants.

Our first session

In our first session, I will be focused on getting to know more about you while building rapport. Questions are meant to learn more about your presenting problem and challenges. We'll talk about your wants and needs from therapy, and I'll explain the therapy process so you feel comfortable.

I identify as...

• Female
• Black or African American
