About

When did taking care of yourself become the thing you keep postponing? If that question stings a little, you are exactly who I had in mind when I built this practice. I work with adults who have been overextended for so long that rest itself feels unfamiliar. I also accompany people through dark seasons, the kind where depression dims everything so slowly that nobody else notices. As a person of color, I understand the particular weight of feeling like you represent more than yourself wherever you go. My work is anchored in creating a really safe space, one where you can put things down without explaining or apologizing. Meditation practices, adapted to your real life rather than an ideal one, help the noise recede so we can hear what is underneath. I have spent years supervising newer clinicians, and mentoring them has only deepened my devotion to this craft. With me you can expect patience, honesty, and questions worth sitting with. Whenever you are ready to stop postponing, I am here.
