    My Mission

    Be confident, love yourself, and put your foot down

    My mission is to create a space filled with freedom to vent (e.g., when you say, “That sh*t got me tight,” you don’t need to explain) without judgement, acknowledge intersecting perspectives and experiences, help you break unhealthy intergenerational traditions, talk through choices aligned with your growth, and offer an authentic person-centered approach to healing.

    My Experience

    With a diverse background spanning school-based services, hospital psychiatric assessments, equine therapy, and more, I bring a wealth of experience to guide you on your journey to mental and physical well-being. Passionate about holistic health, I hold a Doctoral degree in Behavioral Health and an M.S. in Marriage and Family Therapy, alongside certification in Lifestyle Medicine.

    My approach is as unique as you are – from Brainspotting and trauma informed yoga to attachment-style assessments, incorporating sacred earth medicines, and even utilizing your zodiac or human design (or even both), I tailor my methods to suit your needs. As a board-certified telemental health provider, I offer flexibility to meet you wherever you are, both figuratively and literally.

    But that’s not all. As a Lucumi initiated practitioner, I bring a culturally sensitive perspective to my practice. My ultimate joy lies in serving Black, Indigenous, and persons of color individuals and children, providing inclusive care and support every step of the way.

    Whether you’re an individual, a pre-marital couple, or a family seeking guidance, immigration evaluation, or a trauma-informed consultant, I’m here to empower you on your journey towards whole-body wellness. Let’s unlock your potential together!
