Great to meet you!

You might be feeling exhausted from holding everything together, anxious about the future, or stuck in patterns that no longer fit who you are. I work primarily with women and couples navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship stress, and trauma that can be hard to put into words. Many of my clients are new to therapy or haven’t always felt culturally safe or understood in past spaces. With me, you don’t have to shrink yourself or explain your whole identity just to be believed. Together, we’ll work toward you feeling more grounded, more confident, and more like yourself again.

My approach to therapy

In our sessions, I blend CBT, DBT, trauma-focused approaches, and motivational interviewing, always tailoring tools to your real life. I’m direct but not harsh, warm but not passive. Therapy with me feels like an honest conversation where we explore hard things, celebrate small shifts, and challenge what no longer serves you. My background in education means I view growth as a process — not a straight line — and I’ll walk that path with you at your pace.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a gentle starting point, not a test. We’ll talk about what brought you here, what you’ve already tried, and what you want to feel different this time. You never have to share more than you’re ready for. If you’re in Louisiana and looking for a therapist who respects your story and your culture, I’d be honored to meet you. You can request an appointment through Headway to get started with telehealth from wherever you are.
