As a black woman I know what it means to provide a safe space for everyone except yourself. As a black woman I know what it means to put everyone else’s needs before your own. As a black woman I know the importance of carrying the “strong black woman” label with you. But what if I told you that being strong could have a different meaning than what you have been taught? What if I told you that being strong could also mean putting your needs first?
We often hold trauma, anxiety, and depression in our bodies, which impacts our physical and mental well-being. These factors can affect how we view ourselves and those around us. Using a cognitive behavioral and strength-based approach we will discover the links between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and work together as a team, towards healing your mind-body connection.
I know how it feels to look for a therapist, and it can be tough. You want someone who provides a judgement free space that is supportive, understanding, healing, comforting, and peaceful. I strive to create this space. My motto is that everyone deserves healing and a safe space, especially you. When working with me, I want you to feel affirmed, empowered, heard, and supported.
