About My Clients
I work mostly with Black people, non-Black people of color, queer folks, trans and nonbinary folks, survivors of sexual assault, and people who work in entertainment. While therapy looks different with all of my clients, there tends to be some overlap around attachment styles, cultural narratives, existential concerns, identity formation, self-compassion, and self-forgiveness. And while there are also many serious and challenging moments, there’s also a lot of laughter.
My Background and Approach
Individual Therapy -- I believe one of the most impactful parts of therapy is the client-therapist relationship. We’ll build ours intentionally and collaboratively, creating a secure base from which we can explore where you are now, where you’ve been, and where you’d like to go. In addition to narrative, attachment, somatic, and existential therapies, I have particular interest and experience in cinematherapy, the art of inviting movies into the clinical space. | Relationship Therapy -- Relationships can be so healing. We as people are meant to exist in safe community with one another, not alone. But that safety and community require maintenance, something that therapy can be supportive of. By “relationship” here, I mean couples, partners, polycules, co-parents, siblings, friends, business associates, creative teams – you name it. Let’s build up your communication skills, process past hurts, and build a secure and affirming path forward.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I’m a queer Black neurodivergent woman who really looks forward to getting to know you. I understand how daunting it can be to start therapy, whether it’s for the first time ever or just for the first time with a new therapist. I also understand how harmful this field can be to people who look and identify the way that I and other marginalized folks do. And I’m constantly learning and unlearning, especially around areas of privilege that I hold, so that I can better show up for people like you. I practice therapy that’s culturally-celebratory, trauma-informed, collaborative, and liberating. I also think it can be really fun! Whatever it is will be specific to you, with your consent, and at your pace.
