Are you seeking a therapist who will meet you where you are and help you uncover the strength you already possess? I am a Black, queer therapist dedicated to providing client-centered, trauma-informed, and culturally attuned care for teens and adults. My practice is built on empathy, collaboration, and compassion. I believe in creating a safe, affirming space where you take the lead, and together, we work toward your personal goals.
Whether you're navigating trauma, anxiety, or other mental health challenges, my role is to help bring forth what is already present within you, and cheer for you as you determine how to share these gifts with the world. Not to mention, I try to make the process as enjoyable as possible! Let’s collaborate to bring clarity and empowerment to your journey.
I approach therapy with the belief that healing happens in a compassionate, inclusive space that honors your lived experiences. Seeking support is often the most difficult but most important step to feeling in control of our lives. Connect with me today to take the next step in your journey of mental and emotional health.
