I am a dedicated therapist with over 17 years of experience helping individuals navigate the complexities of mental health and addiction. I specialize in supporting those struggling with anxiety, depression, and substance use.

I believe that many people underestimate how deeply their mental well-being impacts their overall quality of life. My goal is to build a relationship with you that honors your unique worldview while addressing the day-to-day stressors that hold you back. Whether you are dealing with inter-personal conflict, grief, or life transitions, I provide a safe, judgment-free space where you can feel seen and heard.

You may notice patterns in relationships, emotions, or coping that feel difficult to understand or change. Often these patterns are shaped by past experiences, including trauma or attachment wounds. At times this may show up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, feeling emotionally unsafe in relationships, or disconnection from yourself or those around you. You may also be navigating identity questions, cultural experiences, grief or life transitions. Therapy can offer a supportive and affirming space to understand these patterns, reduce anxiety, and build healthier relationships.

I am also a clinical associate professor at Brown University, where I teach and supervise clinicians in training. I work with individuals, couples, and veterans navigating relationship patterns, life transitions, and the impact of trauma.

Therapist

I believe therapy works best when people feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted without judgment. Along with my professional experience in community mental health and crisis-based work, I also bring lived experience that helps me connect with clients in a compassionate, authentic, and down-to-earth way. I understand how overwhelming life can feel when someone is navigating trauma, chronic stress, medical challenges, major life changes, or simply trying to keep everything together while struggling internally.

I have experience supporting adults dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional overwhelm, substance use concerns, and severe and persistent mental illness. I’m especially passionate about working with people impacted by difficult life experiences, medical trauma, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and emotional exhaustion.

My goal is to create a space where clients feel safe, comfortable, respected, and truly understood while working toward healing, growth, and a stronger connection with themselves.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a therapeutic approach and consulting practice grounded in the belief that healing begins when we learn to see ourselves through a clearer, more empowered lens. As a Nigerian-American woman, my heritage deeply informs my understanding of identity, resilience, spirituality, and community. These values shape the way I hold space for clients and guide them toward alignment with their highest embodiment of self.

My professional background includes years of experience in community mental health, trauma-informed care, and culturally responsive practice. I have supported women, youth, and BIPOC communities through therapy, support groups, and mental health trainings. I am also influenced by Womanist Psychology, which honors the lived experiences, wisdom, and strength of Black women and communities.

My work integrates Western therapeutic approaches with cultural insight, African wisdom, and a holistic understanding of healing. I believe that our lenses or our “vue" are shaped by our stories, our lineage, and the environments that raised us. Through SelfVue, I help clients shift their perspective, reconnect with their inner strength, and cultivate a grounded sense of self-worth.

Whether through individual therapy, consultation, or organizational support, my goal is to create a warm, intuitive, and culturally attuned space where clients feel seen, affirmed, and supported in their journey toward self-actualization.

I am currently accepting new clients. I provide children, teenagers, and adults a safe and supportive place to get help with emotional or behavioral challenges. I customize each treatment plan to the patient's preferences, using traditional medication management and/or integrative psychiatry to provide a holistic approach to improve each patient's mental health and overall balance, helping you be happier. You are not alone; I can help you throughout this journey.

Graduated from Duke University and the University of Pennsylvania, I bring over 8 years of experience in the psychiatric and mental health field, caring for patients at Johns Hopkins Medicine, Sheppard Pratt Hospital, St. Joseph Medical Center (University of MD), St. Vincent's Villa (Catholic Charities, MD), and Thundermist Health Care (Rhode Island).

My goal is to help you function at your best while building confidence and stability. I genuinely care about my patients. Together, we can find a path for you to live your best life. Give me a call or send me a text for a brief free introductory chat, no commitment required.
