I'm a therapist dedicated to supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. With over a decade of clinical experience, I work with clients navigating depression, anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, and trauma. My approach is grounded in compassion and a deep commitment to helping you reconnect with your sense of self-worth and purpose.
I specialize in addressing self-esteem concerns, communication struggles, isolation, social anxiety, guilt and shame, and the lasting effects of trauma and abuse. I also support clients working through life transitions like divorce, attachment challenges, caregiver stress, and mood-related concerns. My work includes helping you develop forgiveness, establish healthy boundaries, and build meaningful connections with others and yourself.
As a Black therapist who integrates faith-centered perspectives into my practice, I honor the unique experiences and values you bring to our work together. I believe therapy is a collaborative journey where you are the expert of your own story, and I'm here to walk alongside you with genuine care and understanding. I'm proud of you for taking this courageous step toward healing and growth.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
