About My Clients

As a therapist, I enjoy working with teens, young adults, and older adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, anger, stress, grief, and loss. My ideal clients are those seeking a safe, supportive space to explore their emotions, build coping skills, and create meaningful change. Whether you're struggling to manage daily stress or healing from a deep loss, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion, understanding, and practical tools for growth and healing.

My Background and Approach

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

As a Black therapist, I believe in the power of representation, empathy, and culturally affirming care. I value authenticity, respect, and the importance of creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where every individual feels seen and heard. I honor each client’s unique story and identity, and I strive to approach therapy with cultural humility, openness, and compassion. My goal is to support healing, growth, and resilience for clients of all backgrounds, experiences, and walks of life.
