About My Clients
I specialize in navigating relationships (platonic, familial, and romantic), life transitions, stress management, and marginalized identity issues. I use an integrative approach that emphasizes humanistic and cognitive behavioral (CBT) modalities. I am best fit clients looking for a safe and validating space to explore and process their experiences; who is looking for a therapist who is interested and attentive to their cultural realities, and prefers a conversational style of therapy.
My Background and Approach
I am a graduate student in clinical training working towards my licensure. My time is deeply committed to studying theoretical concepts and applying them to meaningful, relevant, and impactful clinical practice. I identify as humanistic therapist - I strive to help you develop a strong and healthy sense of self, explore your feelings, focus on your strengths, and find meaning in your life experiences. To accomplish this, I integrate person-centered and cognitive behavioral interventions to move us towards your goals. Therapy with me is conversational and easygoing. We'll develop a cadence that feels familiar and invites you to bring your authentic self to our space. My priority will always be to develop relationship with you and to foster a space that feels safe enough to be vulnerable, honest, and compassionately challenged. I believe that insight is key to wellbeing. I will support you in pursuing a self-examined life and introduce you to tools that empower you toward change.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that all people are complex, and that those complexities must be embraced in order to develop understanding for ourselves and others. I am a Black woman with many other identities and realities that impact the meaning I make in the world. I am also a person of faith and embrace spiritual beliefs and experiences as valid and integral to holistic healing. My core personal values include truth, voice, fulfillment, and rest. I carry these values with me professionally and extend them to you as a client. Whether you're new to therapy or returning for deep-processing or general maintenance, therapy can benefit you. If you are looking for a warm and open therapist who values cultural humility as much as competence, let's connect. As the saying goes, "traveler, there is no trail, the path is made by walking." Good news is, we don't have to walk alone.
