Great to meet you!

You are a compassionate, experienced clinician who strongly focuses on empowerment and African Americans with complex emotional and relational challenges. You emphasize the importance of self-discovery, healing from trauma, and fostering spiritual growth. Your expertise extends to helping clients manage ADHD, improve organization, and handle professional responsibilities. With cultural sensitivity, you provide a safe space for clients to explore their identities and find emotional resilience.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Your approach addresses mental health issues through a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive lens, focusing on African American, women, and culturally diverse experiences. You guide clients in healing from generational pain, managing anxiety, depression, and attachment issues, while addressing the impact of discrimination. You integrate faith-based practices for spiritual growth. Your methods empower clients to build resilience, improve relationships, and find purpose.

What you can expect from our first session

Clients can expect to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and their emotional experiences, particularly about trauma, generational pain, and discrimination. They'll develop practical strategies for managing mental health issues like anxiety, depression, and ADHD. Through faith-based practices, they'll strengthen their spiritual and emotional well-being. Clients will build resilience, improve relationships, and gain the tools to navigate life's challenges confidently and purposefully.
