Personal growth and overcoming emotional or mental challenges can feel like immovable obstacles. These obstacles may be related to family, loss, relationships, societal / cultural pressures, racism or other traumas. The challenges can cause many symptoms like perfectionism, sadness, isolation, anger, defensiveness, people pleasing, overthinking, weak boundaries, low self-esteem or suicidal thoughts. Unfortunately, we weren't all afforded the opportunity to learn healthy coping skills to manage these symptoms, nor how to recognize or recover from them. Furthermore, openly confronting issues, even in the home, may have been forbidden.
As a Black, female clinician, I understand these challenges and the associated fear and pain. As such, I collaborate with my clients along their journey to healing. In addition to talking through challenges, I introduce techniques and deeper insight to help conquer symptoms and provide my clients with secure emotional support in a non-judgmental environment.
If you can relate to these challenges or symptoms and my approach seems like a good fit, please contact me for additional information. I look forward to hearing from you!
