Great to meet you!

Do you feel like you’re always pushing through—taking care of everyone else while quietly running on empty? I support high-functioning Millennial and Gen-X women of color who appear “put together” on the outside but feel overwhelmed, anxious, and exhausted on the inside. You may find yourself overthinking, people-pleasing, second-guessing your decisions, and carrying responsibilities that go unseen. In our work together, you don’t have to hold it all together. Therapy becomes a space to slow down, breathe, and receive the support you’ve been giving to everyone else.

My approach to therapy

Therapy with me is supportive, honest, and culturally responsive. You won’t have to over-explain yourself or your lived experience. Together, we’ll unpack the pressure, overthinking, and exhaustion that keep you in survival mode, and work toward feeling more grounded and emotionally steady.

What you can expect from me

During your first session, you can expect a collaborative, supportive conversation where you don’t need to perform, explain yourself, or have it all figured out. We’ll focus on getting to know you and what brings you to therapy. I’ll complete an initial intake, which includes learning more about your background, life experiences, and the concerns you’d like support with. We’ll explore what’s been feeling heavy or overwhelming, as well as what you’re hoping to gain from therapy, and begin shaping a therapy plan that feels aligned with you.
