Great to meet you!

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals and families through life’s most challenging transitions.

As a Black woman and mental health practitioner, I understand how healing is layered — especially when we’re carrying the weight of generational trauma, daily stress, and the pressure to keep going, no matter what. My work is rooted in creating a safe, affirming space for clients to exhale, show up fully, and be truly seen.

Whether you’re navigating grief, identity, addiction, relationship struggles, or just feeling stuck — I’m here as a co-pilot, offering tools and cultural understanding for real, lasting change.

My approach to therapy

I draw from Internal Family Systems, and Psychodynamic Modalities —grounded in a trauma-informed, whole-person approach. My goal is to meet you where you are, honoring your lived experience while helping you reconnect with your resilience and core self.

What you can expect from me

Sessions are client lead with a focus on SMART goals so that our time together feel meaningful.
