Great to meet you!

Hi, and welcome! I’m a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and I believe that hope is an important anchor in our lives, even during our most challenging moments.

Life can sometimes leave us feeling overwhelmed, anxious, discouraged, or disconnected from ourselves. You may be struggling with past trauma, current challenges, or negative thoughts that make it difficult to see a way forward. Whatever brings you to therapy, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

My approach to therapy

My goal is to provide a warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Together, we can explore your experiences, discover your strengths, and develop practical skills to help you manage your emotions, build resilience, and move toward the life you want.


As an Afro-Latina therapist and ordained minister, I value the importance of feeling understood in all aspects of who you are. I strive to create a culturally and spiritually affirming space where you can feel safe being yourself and explore what healing and growth mean to you.

You don’t have to have all the answers to begin. We can take things one step at a time, at a pace that feels right for you, as you work toward renewed hope, greater self-understanding, and emotional well-being.

What you can expect from me

My goal is that clients leave that first session empowered and hopeful. In that session, you can expect to address feelings of hopelessness while identifying treatment goals. The intake process involves obtaining background history, exploring treatment goals and objectives, and developing a treatment plan. Throughout treatment, clients learn practical strategies to cope with their challenges. When needed, homework is assigned to encourage clients to implement strategies in real-life situations.
