“Healing begins where the wound was made.” -Alice Walker

I am a firm believer in body, mind, spirit healing. I seek to help individuals uncover, accept, and embolden all parts of their true selves. I hope to help people find their own paths to happiness and light finding the beauty of each part of the journey. My approach to healing is based on intersectionality and feminism, while being person-centered and trauma-informed. I utilize a myriad of techniques including afro-centered techniques, mindfulness-based strategies, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while working with adults overcoming issues related to trauma, depression, anxiety, interpersonal violence, developmental disorders, and substance use issues.

I received my undergraduate degree from Emory University in Psychology and Literature. I obtained my master’s degree from the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor with a concentration in Mental Health. I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. in Education from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. 

In my free time, I enjoy spending quality time with family and friends, laughing obnoxiously, reading, watching kids’ movies, and playing with my beloved dog Teddy. I am also involved with academic research projects that investigate the impact of oppression on educational outcomes and am focused on improving Black femmes experiences in higher ed spaces.
