About

My love for therapy came after I was able to engage and participate in therapy for myself and really “practice what I preach” while I was still young and in school. It was a great experience because although my therapist understood her job was my end goal and what all my classes were teaching me what she was actively utilizing with me, she acknowledges me as a human first, a young student, black girl, who was struggling through the ebbs and flows of life, as we all do. I love therapy because life is truly a continuous healing journey and things and people change, therapy is a space that welcomes and hosts the ‘growing pains’ of life’s transitions and changes, the good, bad, ugly, unexpected and all. I have had the privilege of working with unique individuals, families, and couples while experiencing life-giving breakthroughs. People experiencing a variety of issues including, but not limited to depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, pregnancy/postpartum/parenting, grief/loss, and healthy relationships can benefit from therapy.
