My journey to becoming a provider
I began as a 24 year old, who had returned to college, a single mom with two kids under the age of 5.
I benefited deeply from therapy after many years of constant crisis and instability.
I offer the support I once needed.
I've been through it and I'm here, ready to support folks who need the wisdom of those who have survived and are now thriving.
Through exploration, reflection, and noticing, we will give our sessions deep purpose and meaning. I will maintain the session's movement, provide insight, and guide you. I use pragmatic insight to create a therapeutic connection and momentum that puts you on a clear path to the roots of your issues and your Self.
With a strong foundation in theory and years of practical experience, I create a space that’s both supportive and transformative, where healing and growth unfold at your pace.

What I Stand For
Tip-Toe Towards the Change
Using a primarily Psychodynamic and Relational approach, I practice with a multi-cultural lens.
This approach centers the relationship between the clients and myself, with the relationship as the conduit for the desired change.
Being Over Doing
When I sit with you and we reflect on life’s experiences, it creates room for you to feel held, feel seen, feel stabilized.
This unique time together will allow for the space to make the changes you need.
The Details of You Matter
I believe our consciousness comes from a place unknown to us, but familiar and close to our soul. I hold space for the unknown, and for the discovery of your Self. My belief is that at some point in our life we became distant from our Self.
Enter Into the Unknown
Maybe it’s the systems we were birthed into, maybe it’s the experience of negative emotions without healing that creates the distance. In my work as a therapist, I’m open to all the possibilities.

You deserve to feel, seen, and grounded. Through a Psychodynamic and Relational approach, I center our therapeutic relationship as a powerful source of change. Our time together allows you to reflect deeply, gain insight, and make meaningful and lasting shifts.
Who I Support Best
I’m invested in supporting women of color, multiracial adults, and intimate partners of all configurations. My work centers on identity, attachment, and life transitions. Whether you are navigating parenting, partnership, breakups, or rediscovering Self, I offer a warm, culturally attuned space where you can get the support you need.
I’ll invite you to share your vision for the life you
hope to create. I want to understand you.
Not only the pain, but the possibilities. While listening deeply, I begin to gain a sense of your world, moving with care and intention.
These early sessions are about building trust
and creating a space where you can
feel seen, heard, and supported.
