I was called to this work by a desire to create spaces where people—especially those who have felt overlooked or misunderstood—can be fully seen and supported without having to shrink themselves.

Being Black, Queer, and Indigenous, I understand mental health as deeply connected to history, community, and the nervous system—not just individual symptoms. I hold awareness of how intergenerational experiences, cultural resilience, and systemic stressors shape emotional well-being.

My style is warm, collaborative, and nervous-system informed. I balance insight with practical tools, integrating evidence-based approaches with somatic awareness so clients can better understand their patterns and build regulation skills.

I frequently work with clients navigating trauma, emotional overwhelm, identity exploration, systemic stress, and neurodivergence (including ADHD and sensory differences).

Our first session is grounded and collaborative. We’ll explore what brings you in, what safety looks like for you, and begin identifying meaningful goals.

In my practice, I lead with compassion and care for you, your identity, and your experiences. I actively seek feedback and want to hear it from you—what works, what doesn’t, what feels safe, and what doesn’t. While it’s easy to fall into people-pleasing patterns, I’ll be there with you to gently challenge and explore them, helping you discover what you truly need to feel safe—in your body, in the room, and in the process of therapy itself.

Because I believe healing becomes possible when people feel both safe and empowered in their own stories.

You don’t have to come perfectly prepared—just come as you are.

Being Black and queer sharpens my attention to safety, power, and belonging in the therapy room. I am mindful of the ways clients may be navigating visibility, code-switching, or identity fatigue, and I work to create a space where complexity is welcomed rather than minimized.

My cultural grounding and lived understanding of moving through multiple identities guide my pacing, my attunement to nervous system safety, and my commitment to meeting clients with both clinical skill and deep respect for their lived realities.

My upbringing taught me the importance of both strength and softness. In therapy, this shows up as a balance of warmth, directness, and careful pacing. I aim to create a space that feels steady, culturally aware, and emotionally safe enough for meaningful change to unfold.
