My staff and I specialize in African American psychology, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) Psychodynamic Therapy, Existential, DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), Schema Therapy, Gestalt, Trauma Focused CBT and IFS. My specific training and education in African American Psychology has provided me knowledge, research, and a deeper subconscious understanding of how the residual effects of slavery, and religious trauma hinders African American families, relationship building, thoughts and feelings to help communities and people of color heal. I have 18 years of experience providing Individual, Couples, Marriage, Family and Group Therapy.

​I am an associate level Professional Counselor that is a Certified Trauma Professional (CTP) as well as National Board Certification (NCC). I am passionate about working with adults, young adults and couples of diverse backgrounds and cultures with an authentic, individualized approach based on a spirit of mutuality.​
I am a LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist and strongly believe that every person has the capacity to be the expert of their life and chosen path. My goal is to walk with you on this path and provide a safe space to discover your true potential.​
I am experienced in working with people suffering with depression, anxiety, addiction, trauma, navigating obstacles in their life path, grief and those who find themselves struggling to re-define their self identity.​
My approach is considered integrative because I feel strongly that there is not one set approach that will support each and every individual.
