About

I was a licensed a clinical psychologist and professor in Chicago for 11 years before I moved to Atlanta where I continued both for ten years. In those 30 years I've specialized in the well-being of people who identify as African-Americans.
In the last three years I have focused on holistic mental health. I emphasize on the connection between mind and body, and on spirit as my clients understand it. I feel obligated to work with African-Americans because they have historically been underserved, so my practice is reserved mainly for people of that heritage.
I see life as a series of phases, each with its own unique challenges. These challenges require new knowledge and life skills. I don’t see race as the only lens to use in life; I see my clients as humans pursuing (and struggling with) well-being, love, career, prosperity and joy. Distress results from injustice originating from within and from without.
As a psychologist, my aim is to assist people in exploring the knowledge and essential life skills necessary for their well-being. With practice and patience, new insights and a new outlook develops. So does self-empathy and confidence. The feeling of empowerment provides what it takes to make critical decisions needed to attain the that measure of joy and meaningful life you deserve.
