In a world that often demands you stay “strong” to survive, therapy can be the one place where you don’t have to hold it all together. Many of us adopt a resilient exterior as a shield—a way to navigate systemic pressures and feel safe—but that shield can become heavy over time. I am here to help you lay that weight down. I am a Black therapist committed to an anti-oppressive and anti-racial approach to support. I understand that your mental health does not exist in a vacuum; it is shaped by your identity, your community, and the systems you navigate daily. In our work together, your lived experience is honored, and your culture is never something you have to explain away.

With over 15 years of experience in the clinical mental health field, my practice is deeply rooted in person-centered and trauma-informed care. I believe you are the expert on your own life; my role is to provide the evidence-based tools to help you navigate it with more ease. I draw from a diverse toolkit of specialized training to ensure our sessions are effective and tailored to your unique needs: • Individual Recovery: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for trauma. • Relationships & Connection: Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT) and the Gottman Method. • Integrated Care: Drawing from various other evidence-based modalities to support your specific goals - body-based counselling strategies, motivational interviewing, emotion focused family therapy (EFFT).

I have the utmost respect for the courage it takes to begin this journey. Whether you are looking to heal from past trauma, improve your relationships, or simply find a space where you can be your authentic self, I am honored to walk alongside you.
