Introduction

If were being honest, life can be tough — and there’s no blueprint for how to deal with its challenges, especially when some days feel heavier than others. I’m a licensed and nationally certified therapist with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I specialize in trauma and complex trauma, with a focus on helping individuals work through the deep, layered impact that trauma can have on every part of life. I utilize trauma-focused modalities that prioritize internal healing, allowing clients to become healthier and more whole — mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I believe healing is possible, and my role is to walk alongside you with compassion, honesty, and clinical expertise. I provide therapy for both adolescents and adults, offering a safe, supportive space to explore your experiences and build resilience. My services are available both in-person and virtually, offering flexibility to meet your needs. My practice is especially rooted in serving urban communities and bridging the gap between societal stigmas around mental health and access to effective, quality care. I am passionate about shifting the narrative — helping people understand that seeking support is a strength, not a weakness. Whether you're navigating trauma, life transitions, anxiety, or simply seeking personal growth, I’m here to support your journey toward healing and empowerment.
