I decided to become a counselor because I have a deep passion for helping people and I am dedicated to my mission of service which centers around supporting individuals of any age to achieve emotional stability and self actualization. I’ve seen how powerful a safe, supportive space can be for healing, growth, and self-discovery, and I wanted to dedicate my career to walking alongside individuals as they work toward greater emotional well-being and meaningful change.

I work best with clients who are open to self-exploration and ready to engage in a collaborative, supportive process.

One thing I wish all clients knew about therapy is that it's not about being "fixed" or having the "right answers" it's about growing and giving yourself permission and grace to not only make more mistakes but to make better decisions now that you have better tool

The first session is an opportunity for us to get familiar with each other and to start understanding what brings you to therapy. We will talk about your goals, your background, and discuss how therapy works. In the early sessions, we’ll focus on building a trusting relationship and developing a mutual understanding of your needs. We will explore your feelings and experiences, then identify patterns or themes that may contribute to difficulties you're facing. And lastly, we will begin to work on ways to help you feel more centered or empowered in daily life.

My practice is deeply informed by both my personal experiences with trauma and grief as well as my core values. As a Black woman, I bring an understanding of the strength and resilience it takes to navigate life’s challenges while showing up for others. I value empathy, authenticity, and cultural awareness, and I strive to create a space where clients feel truly seen, heard, and respected. These experiences and values guide my commitment to supporting each person’s unique journey toward healing, growth, and self-discovery.

I believe that therapy should reflect who you are as person based on your goals, values, and story. I take time to truly understand each client’s background through their experiences, strengths, and challenges so our work together feels personal and meaningful. Using a flexible, integrative approach that draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, solution-focused strategies, and strength-based techniques, I tailor each session to meet their unique needs and pace. Whether they need space to process emotions, learn new skills, or find clarity in life transitions, we’ll work together to create a plan that supports their growth and well-being
