Great to meet you!

My name means "Light" so my greatest gift to you is us shedding a 'light' on your problems and finding compassionate solutions to help you. You may be reading this while at your lowest point in life but don't worry, I'm here to guide you back to your true self. I offer compassionate therapy, rooted in the transformative power of holistic healing. We will apply principles of mindfulness, spirituality and psychoanalysis in our sessions.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I specialize in guiding individuals through transformative healing journeys, drawing from my personal experiences and a compassionate, holistic approach. My therapeutic offerings encompass self-discovery, spiritual exploration, and culturally sensitive support. Through a blend of psychotherapy and holistic healing practices, I assist clients in reconnecting with their true selves, fostering resilience, and illuminating their path to personal growth and well-being.

What you can expect from our first session

I'm a compassionate therapist who believes in the transformative power of healing through a holistic approach. I can assist you with issues around anxiety, trauma and depression. I focus as well on burnout, self care, men's & relationship issues.

I'm BIPOC & culturally sensitive. You may be reading this at a time where you're going through a crisis & need moral support. Perhaps you're starting to doubt yourself and dimming your flame.
