Anxiety can look like your mind never fully shutting off always preparing for the next thing that could go wrong. Depression can look like waking up and already feeling behind, heavy, or just flat. Neither one is a sign that something is wrong with you. They are real, they are draining, and they deserve real attention.
I've been working in mental health for over nine years. A big part of that time was spent in community mental health working with people who were dealing with serious life circumstances and didn't always have easy access to help. That experience taught me a lot about how anxiety and depression actually show up in real life, not just in a textbook. I've sat with people through some of their hardest seasons, and I take that responsibility seriously.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), which means I'm trained and licensed to provide talk therapy for adults. I specialize in anxiety and depression, and I work with people from all walks of life, including Black women, people of color, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. When we work together, I don't follow a rigid script. I pull from different therapy styles and find what actually fits you your personality, your history, your life. Some people need tools to manage day-to-day stress. Others need space to understand patterns that have been running in the background for years. We figure that out together. If you've been thinking about getting support and just haven't taken that step yet , I'm a good place to start.
