About Your Therapist

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist born and raised in Newark, New Jersey, devoted to supporting women in motherhood, individuals, couples, and families in their emotional and relational wellness.

​

I hold a particular commitment to serving women of color, women in motherhood, and first-generation professionals, while providing inclusive care to all clients seeking meaningful growth and healing. My work is rooted in a trauma-informed, relational, and culturally grounded approach that honors the lived experiences, identities, and systemic influences shaping each client’s story.

​

As a therapist, I value authenticity, connection, and warmth. I believe healing can exist alongside laughter, reflection, and creativity. I bring my full humanity into the therapeutic space—grounded, compassionate, and present—while holding space for yours.

I hold a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Graduate Certificate in Systemic Couple & Family Therapy from Capella University, along with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology.

​

Clinically, I integrate Structural, Strategic, Bowenian, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Collaborative Language Systems, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples, CBT, DBT, ACT, Motivational Interviewing, the Nurtured Heart Approach, and trauma-informed interventions. This integrative style allows therapy to be flexible, personalized, and deeply effective.

​

I specialize in supporting women navigating identity, stress, burnout, and self-worth; couples working to rebuild trust and communication; and families strengthening emotional safety and connection. I also provide support for trauma healing, anxiety, depression, and significant life transitions.

​

My practice is culturally sensitive, strengths-based, and deeply client-centered. My mission is to help you break generational patterns, reclaim confidence, and build a future where you thrive from a place of wholeness — not survival.

​

​

 

You deserve a space designed with your healing in mind — where restoration, safety, and joy are possible.
