About My Clients

My ideal clients are individuals and couples ready to explore deeper connection, healing, and growth. I work with interracial couples navigating cultural dynamics, and people of color seeking a space where they can feel truly seen and heard. Whether you’re rebuilding trust in your relationship, working through conflict, or breaking free from old patterns, I’m here to help. Together, we’ll create a warm, supportive space to heal wounds, celebrate your identity, and build the life you desire.

My Background and Approach

As a Haitian-American psychotherapist, I bring a culturally attuned and depth-oriented perspective to therapy, helping individuals and couples uncover the patterns and beliefs shaping their lives. My approach blends depth psychology with practical tools, creating a unique space for healing that integrates the past and present while fostering hope for the future. I specialize in couples work, supporting partners in rebuilding trust, improving communication, and navigating cultural or relational complexities. Whether you're part of an interracial relationship or seeking to deepen your connection, I provide a safe, judgment-free environment where both partners feel heard and valued. My background also includes working with women of color and those exploring identity, cultural dynamics, or emotional wounds. Together, we’ll delve into the roots of challenges while addressing everyday concerns, creating meaningful change and a stronger foundation for your relationships and personal growth.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I deeply value the ways culture, spirituality, and connection shape our lives. My approach integrates the mundane with the profound, finding meaning in both the small, everyday moments and the larger themes that guide us. I bring my love of dreamwork, spirituality, and even a bit of psychic intuition to the therapy room, creating space to explore the unseen layers of your life. Herbalism and nature also inspire my work, offering gentle reminders of how healing can emerge from unexpected places. I believe in honoring all parts of the self—body, mind, and spirit—and invite my clients to bring their whole selves into our sessions. As a proud advocate for the LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities, I strive to make therapy a sanctuary for anyone who has felt unseen or silenced. Whether you're seeking clarity, healing, or a deeper connection to your identity, I’ll meet you where you are with curiosity, compassion, and care.
