Great to meet you!

I specialize in helping women of color overcome anxiety and trauma, empowering you to regain control of your life. You may not see yourself as a high-achiever, but others admire your accomplishments and seek your guidance. Despite this, stereotypes can lead to unwarranted self-doubt. As a seminary graduate, I also help you integrate your beliefs into treatment in healthy ways.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I promote and support the worth, dignity, potential, culture, beliefs, and uniqueness of each individual in the treatment process. I utilize client-centered therapy, CBT, mindfulness, and relaxation training to help clients reduce intrapersonal turmoil and journey toward healthy and individualized goals.

What you can expect from our first session

I support women of color in regaining confidence and control after being derailed by societal pressures, life experiences, or daily stressors. My goal is to help you reconnect with yourself, develop productive thinking, and achieve positive social adjustment and healing. Together, we'll increase personal and body awareness, empowering you to take the driver's seat in your life. Let’s work together to navigate these challenges and reclaim your true identity and strength.
