About My Clients

Working with a therapist is a partnership. It's having someone on your team to help you problem-solve, heal, and create your best path forward. Therapy is an investment in yourself. It's setting aside intentional time to lean into your emotions to better understand yourself so that you can transcend to the next stage in your life. You show up with the experience, history, and goals. I show up with the education, training, and evidence-based skills to collaborate with you and help you reach them.

My Background and Approach

Think of therapy as you in the driver's seat and I am beside you with the GPS. You are always leading the way and I am there to help guide you to your destination. I deliver care in a strengths-based way that is affirming and curious. I practice open communication and work with each individual to determine their preferred approach to expanding and healing.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I feel privileged to hold space for individuals that are seeking to change. My intention as a psychotherapist is to create a safe space for you to feel seen, heard, and understood so that you may heal and flourish into your highest self. I teach about advancing racial equity in mental health care and destigmatizing mental health concerns. I am a Hood Feminist informed by Mikki Kendall's book "Hood Feminism." Animals are life. Honoring and taking care of our planet Earth is important to me.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
