I am cis-gender, biracial woman, raised by my black family. As a singer and writer myself, I’m a firm believer that what is difficult to say in words, can often be expressed through the arts and music. There is so much healing in being creative! I enjoy incorporating the arts and music into therapy when I can.  I’m also extremely passionate about helping people who may be going through spiritual changes, or those who’ve been negatively impacted by religion. At times, and if necessary, I can incorporate therapies such as EMDR into my practice to help people heal from past trauma. I like to meet people where they’re at, while demonstrating empathy and compassion.  I’m also affirming of all sexualities and genders, and enjoy working with the LGBTQ community. My ideal clients are people of color, creative, and those ready for healing and change.

I believe in creating a safe space that allows you to let go of the desire to have it all together; by releasing the stress, anxiety, trauma, hurt, guilt, shame, and expectations of others in order to become the authentic you. It is in this space that healing and restoration can occur so that you can gain control of your life. I work from a collaborative, strengths-based approach to help you acknowledge the unique contexts (culture, ethnicity, socio-economic background) that can impact your life. I will help you connect with your strengths, and learn the ways to live in wholeness. My empathy and warmth create a nonjudgmental space where you can process and heal. I have experience working with PTSD, anxiety, depression, and spiritual/faith struggles, and I am here to walk alongside you on your journey.
