About My Clients

Clients that I work with can expect to learn more about themselves as well as learn to process their experiences on a deeper level. They can always expect to gain valuable life skills to be utilize beyond their time in therapy. I enjoy working with young adults, high schoolers, and those looking to heal through therapy.

My Background and Approach

Life can sometimes feel like a never ending rollercoaster; with highs, lows, and twists and turns. No matter where you are in your journey, taking that courageous step towards healing can be both rewarding and difficult. But you are not alone. My goal is to help you navigate life in a safe and nonjudgmental environment. Whether wanting to work through past childhood experiences, navigating new life transitions, or just needing a listening ear, I am here to help you work through it. I have training in working with those who has experienced trauma, anxiety, depression, and those with difficulties with navigating life challenges.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

As a Black woman, I love working with other black youth and young adults to decrease the stigma of therapy and mental health. I work to provide a safe and inviting space for Black men and women to process current and past life stressors.
