I’m a licensed psychologist with advanced training in trauma-informed and culturally responsive care. I earned my doctorate in Counseling Psychology and have worked across clinical, wellness, and consulting settings supporting individuals navigating burnout, identity stress, trauma, mood disorders and major life transitions.

I specialize in working with Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), particularly Black women and professionals who are tired of carrying it all and ready to live with more clarity, boundaries, and ease. My work is deeply relational—I believe healing happens in connection, not isolation—and I bring both professional expertise and lived experience into the room.

Outside of therapy, I love vacationing and traveling (rest is not a reward, it’s a right), hosting gatherings at my home, spending time with loved ones, and creating soulful experiences through writing, speaking, and wellness work. Clients often describe me as grounded, warm, and direct—the kind of therapist who will validate you and help you move forward.

Areas of focus include: Burnout and stress management Life transitions and identity exploration Trauma and stuck patterns Boundary-setting and people-pleasing High-achieving professionals navigating overwhelm Clients from marginalized and intersectional identities

I’m a therapist based in Memphis who works with high-achieving women navigating anxiety, burnout, identity transitions, and complex relationship dynamics. Many of my clients are successful on the outside and exhausted on the inside. They are often the responsible one, the strong one, the reliable one — and quietly overwhelmed.

My work is grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS), an evidence-based model that helps clients understand and heal the different “parts” of themselves — the driven part, the critical part, the anxious part, the part that feels unseen. I am Level 1 trained in IFS and integrate attachment-informed and trauma-responsive care into my practice.

I want you to know that you’ll be met with respect, compassion, and understanding. With over 30 years of total experience and 19 years as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I’ve worked with individuals facing Substance use / addiction, Anxiety, Depression, and stress. I believe in creating a safe, supportive space where you can be open and honest. We’ll work together at a pace that feels right for you, focusing on growth, healing, and practical tools for moving forward.
