Great to meet you!

As a dedicated therapist, my goal is to provide a safe, compassionate and nonjudgmental space where individuals can explore their emotions, challenges and growth. I specialize in working with women of color struggling with anxiety and depression. I understand how overwhelming life can feel, especially when juggling the weight of depression, anxiety, and the everyday challenges of life. For women of color, these struggles can feel even more isolating and complex, with cultural, societal, and personal pressures adding layers of difficulty.

My approach to therapy

Together, we can navigate the challenges you're facing, unpack what’s weighing you down, and find the strength within you to move forward. I believe in the power of human resilience, and I am committed to supporting my clients on their journey towards healing and self-discovery. I offer online individual therapy services drawing from various therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Strengths-Based therapy.

What you can expect from me

When you choose to begin therapy, you are taking a crucial step toward healing, self-discovery, and growth. In our work together, you can expect to gain more than just support; you will find the tools and insights that will help you navigate life’s challenges with greater resilience and confidence.
