Life can be challenging, and at times it may feel difficult to navigate the stress, uncertainty, and emotional pain that come with it. My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel seen, heard, and empowered to explore life's challenges from a new perspective.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 7 years of experience supporting adolescents, adults, couples, and individuals from diverse backgrounds. I specialize in life transitions, anxiety, depression, and interpersonal relationship concerns. I am particularly passionate about serving historically under served communities while providing culturally responsive care that honors each person's unique experiences, values, and identity.

Our human experience can carry trauma, and I bring both clinical training and real-world experience in trauma informed care from health care and higher education. I support people in moving toward health-based emotional and mental well-being. My work integrates clinical knowledge with embodied, brain-based approaches to healing. Light-hearted and warm, I deeply value each person's unique story and inner world. I work primarily with adults, navigating phobias, anxiety, chronic nervous system dysregulation, relational repair, challenging life transitions, and persistent survival patterns. I continually expand my knowledge through innovative and evidence-based tools.

I am a Brooklyn-based Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, specializing in Drama Therapy, who believes in the liberation and empowerment of marginalized communities, especially black women and women of color. I am also an artist whose art concentration lies in playwriting, fiction writing, directing, and performing. My practice is rooted in storytelling, empowerment, embodiment, and somatic awareness.

I bring over 15 years of experience working with children, families, and schools to help people understand their emotions, strengthen relationships, and build the tools they need to thrive. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that we all do the best we can with the tools we have—and that with the right support, we can grow and heal.

I understand the depths of hardship due to psychological suffering. I am passionate about partnering with the individual to find meaning in this suffering. In treatment I do not focus on getting rid of pain, but learning to make space for it while living a full life. I utilize a person in environment perspective to understand your challenges and collaborate to make change that feels right for you.

I’m a person in long-term recovery, which means I’ve been substance-free since July 13th, 2016. My experiences with depression, anxiety, and self-medicating eventually became a substance use disorder—and ultimately led me to a deeper purpose in the counseling field. I understand the weight of isolation, low self-worth, and the struggle to feel “okay.” If you’re dealing with anxiety, self-image issues, substance use, relationship challenges, or overwhelming stress, I offer not just professional tools—but personal understanding. I can help you feel less alone.
