I know firsthand what it feels like to show up for myself, even when I don’t feel it. As a Black woman, I understand how hard it is to live authentically in a society that makes you feel like you aren’t enough. I’ve come to remind you that you are.

Much like in my everyday life, I provide a non-judgemental approach to therapy. This creates a safe space for you to be your whole self, unapologetically, and gives me the opportunity to better understand what you need from therapy. I believe that everyone, regardless of background, family history or identity, deserves acceptance, love and peace of mind.
