About My Clients
You’re trying to hold it together as best as you can. You are able to be there for everyone else but struggle to show up for yourself. Sometimes you just feel so down but you can’t quite figure out why. It's been going on for a while now and no matter what you have tried, nothing seems to make you feel better. It may be something from your past that you are having a hard time dealing with or may even avoid thinking about. You feel like no one gets it and "something must be wrong with me".
My Background and Approach
You just want to be happy and get through the day feeling lighter. You want to talk to someone who understands you and listens. You want to feel like the person you know you can be. You want to live a peaceful and fulfilling life in which you feel safe, secure and in control. You no longer want to feel like your past is looming over you, defining your life.I genuinely believe you already have the answers and all you need within yourself. I am simply going to help you tap into that power. Therapy should be a process in which we work together on your journey towards healing. I encourage self-expression and exploration using techniques from mindfulness, IFS, sensorimotor and EMDR. I hear you and I am here for you.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Reducing the stigma around mental health in the Black community is a cause of great importance to me. It is crucial that people of color feel supported, respected, understood, and safe when they want help. Mental health and seeking treatment for mental health should not be shameful and embarrassing, instead it should be an empowering experience because you are doing what is best for you. You are taking control of your life , your body and your overall well-being. I recognize coming to therapy as a strength that should be celebrated and will be with all of my clients. I believe your life and your story are important. I am open to people of all races, ages, religions walks of life and the LGBTQ community. As I mentioned this is a space for you to feel comfortable, listened to and respected and with me that is exactly what you are going to get.
