About My Clients

Are you tired of living in fear of the unknown or overthinking all of the worries in your life? Do you ever struggle to complete a task or project because you’ve procrastinated or felt consumed by making sure that you’ve done it perfectly? When you’ve struggled with stress and high-functioning anxiety for most of your life and still managed to some measure of success, it can be hard to know when it’s time to reach out for support. You should know that you don't have to live this way.

My Background and Approach

I primarily help with high-functioning anxiety, trauma, and burnout. Treatment typically combines EMDR with evidence-based talk therapy, tailored to your pace and goals. You can expect to feel less overwhelmed, more grounded, and finally free from the patterns that have been holding you back. I specialize in helping high-performing Black women heal anxiety and trauma using EMDR Therapy: reprocessing painful experiences so they lose their emotional grip. My approach is trauma-informed, culturally affirming, and built around your pace and goals. Real insight. Practical tools. Lasting change. Let’s find some time to talk by phone for a free 15-minute consultation! You can schedule directly from my website at www.mindspringwellnesscounseling.com.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

You've spent so long being taking care of everyone else and working to build a life they can depend on. You deserve a space to finally exhale without explaining yourself, minimizing your experience, or performing strength. Healing is possible, and it can start sooner than you think. I'd love to connect and talk about what's possible for you.
