About My Clients

First and foremost, you should be so proud of yourself for taking this step! I work with individuals who feel overwhelmed by life’s challenges but are open to growth and self-discovery. Someone who wants a safe, supportive space to explore their experiences, develop tools for resilience, and create meaningful change. My clients are motivated to heal, grow, and find balance.

My Background and Approach

As an African American woman, I understand the importance of cultural awareness in healing. Using a trauma-informed and holistic approach, I strive to meet you where you are. Whether it’s managing overwhelm, improving relationships, or finding peace within yourself, I’m here to guide you on your journey. Let’s take this step together! I’m passionate about helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges and build fulfilling lives. Using a trauma-informed approach, I integrate modalities such as TF-CBT, DBT skills, and play therapy to support clients with ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions.
