Life can be a lot. Between juggling work, friends and family life, anxiety and sadness can sneak up on you. Therapy isn’t about lying on a couch while someone silently nods, it’s about having a real convo with someone who gets it. Together, we’ll work together out how to quiet the noise, boost your mental health, and build habits that make life feel less like survival mode and more like you actually living it. Life throws curveballs — and when we don’t fully process them, they can sneakily pile up as stress, anxiety, or that heavy feeling you just can’t shake. That’s where therapy comes in.

My mission is simple: create a space where you can express yourself, shake off the weight you’ve been carrying, and explore who you’ve been, who you are, and who you want to become. A safe zone for real talk and growth. EMDR (a way of helping your brain re-file old memories so they don’t keep hitting the panic button), systems theory, person centered theory.

Therapy with me isn’t about lying on a couch in awkward silence. It’s modern, collaborative, sometimes even a little fun — because growth doesn’t always have to feel heavy. I’m open-minded yet structured and here to make the process feel less like a chore and more like a genuine reset.

For insurances I do not accept: Out of network provider: 4 questions to ask insurance representative: Does your plan include "out-of-network" coverage for mental health? What is your annual deductible for mental health benefits? What is your co-insurance? (What percentage does the plan cover?) Is there a limit on sessions?

At the core of my practice is my work with African Americans, addressing colorism and internalized racism and how it affect your interpersonal relationships. Helping clients recognize how the complexion of your skin plays a role in who you become, how you are viewed and how it affects your mood.

Your brain is a physical organ — and like any organ, it can heal, and change. Your struggles aren't character flaws; they're brain biology, and our brains can heal and grow.

I offer neuroscience-based psychiatric care via telehealth throughout Connecticut, drawing on 27 years across the state's healthcare landscape — ICUs, ERs, home visits, schools, and communities. Awareness is the first step in healing.
