Introduction

As an African American female born and raised in New York I have had my share of challenges and triumphant lived experiences. I remember early in my life being very aware and feeling frustrated with my experience of being a black female. My family and community support gave me strength and how to tap into the magic within! I know professionally and personally the resiliency, the intelligence and the beauty of people of color. As well as the struggles uniquely experienced by people of color. My lived experience as black female influence my professional identity. My goal is to attend to the emotional needs of people who experienced emotional neglect, racial trauma, sexism or who are just living in a world where who you are is made to feel different or less than. I want my clients to know that their emotional wellness matters. I create a safe space for people of color to explore and tend to their emotional needs. All clients have the power to heal themselves, I just support along the journey. Offering individual weekly counseling sessions for adults. Limited sliding scale fee sessions are available.
