Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Mississippi

If anxiety won't quiet down, stress keeps piling up, or you're navigating something hard, like postpartum changes, a struggling relationship, or something from your past that hasn't had space to heal, you're in the right place. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Mississippi with experience helping individuals and families move through real challenges. I bring genuine warmth to this work, because I believe healing happens when you feel truly heard.

I focus on helping individuals through grief and loss, anxiety, depression, anger, and physical stress. My passion is helping patients move from a place of despair to optimism. My ability to help others comes from personal life experience, formal and informal education and the desire to help. I use researched based therapeutic methods to strengthen and empower you to be able to problem solve and face challenges independently. I will not promise you a cure. I will promise to work with you until you reach a place of peace and calm. If that is what you are looking for, I would love to meet you.

You've Been Strong for Everyone Else-Now It's Your Turn

For the past 18 years, I've worked with adults who are carrying more than most people around them know. If you're the one everyone leans on, the high-achiever who looks put-together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed on the inside, or someone who has been strong for so long you've forgotten what it feels like to just exhale, you're in the right place.

As a Black therapist, I bring both clinical training and lived understanding to this work. Whether you're navigating anxiety that won't quiet, grief that hasn't had space, a relationship that's draining you, or a life transition that has left you feeling stuck, you don't have to have it figured out before you begin.

Wherever you're starting from, meaningful support is available, and you deserve to be the one receiving it for a change.

Life can feel exhausting when you're carrying more than anyone else realizes. You may be dealing with anxiety, depression, pressure to stay strong, relationship challenges, or questions about your identity while feeling like there's no space to simply be yourself. You don't have to face those experiences alone. Therapy can be a place where you feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. I provide virtual therapy for adolescents, adults, seniors, children, and families throughout Mississippi, helping people navigate anxiety, depression, men's issues, and cultural and ethnic concerns while also supporting ADHD, trauma, OCD, anger management, relationship challenges, family stress, and life transitions that often become part of the same journey. My goal is to create a welcoming environment where you can reconnect with your strengths, gain clarity, and move toward the life you want to build.
