Great to meet you!

I've been doing this work for 36 years — across community mental health centers, inpatient psychiatric units, elder care facilities, CPS investigations, and private practice. I say that not to impress you, but so you know: whatever you're bringing into session, I've probably seen something close to it before, and I'm not going to be rattled by it.I'm a Black therapist and a Christian woman, and I believe both of those things inform how I show up for clients. If faith is part of your life, I can work within that — and if it isn't, that's completely fine too. My practice, Stable Today Inspirational Counseling, is built on a simple idea: you don't have to wait until everything is resolved to start feeling more stable. That shift can begin right now, in this conversation.I work with adults and seniors, individuals, couples, and families — and I hold a real commitment to making therapy financially accessible. Sessions start at $55, I accept Medicare and Medicaid, and a sliding fee scale is available when needed.

My approach to therapy

My foundation is client-centered — meaning your goals set the direction, and I follow your lead on pace. But I'm not a passive presence in a session. I'm direct. I ask the questions that get underneath the surface, and I'll tell you honestly what I'm observing.I draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when we're working on thought patterns that keep pulling you backward. I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) when the goal is learning to move forward without waiting for the pain to disappear first. For clients processing trauma, I integrate Trauma-Focused CBT and somatic approaches. For relationships — whether romantic, family, or work — I bring Emotionally Focused Therapy and relational frameworks.I also use something I've learned simply from being human for decades: the stories of other people who've been where you are and found their way through. Sometimes the most useful thing isn't a clinical framework — it's knowing someone else made it out the other side.

What you can expect from me

I'll start by listening — really listening, without rushing toward a diagnosis or a treatment plan. I want to understand what's actually going on for you: not just the presenting issue, but the context around it, the patterns you've noticed, the things that have and haven't helped before.By the end of our first session, we'll have a shared sense of what you're hoping to work toward, and you'll know whether I'm the right fit. There's no pressure. I'd rather you leave with clarity about whether this is the right match than feel like you have to make it work.You can reach me for a free 15-minute consultation before booking — click the link below to see my availability and schedule directly. Stable today starts with one conversation.
