No lived experience or sense of self is the same, and for those of us who live at the intersections of race, gender, and/or sexuality there is a unique set of stressors that we face when navigating a world that does not cater to us.

Are you…

  • Wanting to discover how to show up in your full authentic self when navigating familial, cultural, and/or societal expectations that are at odds?

  • Able to put words to your emotions, yet struggling to feel through them? 

  • Navigating a big transition?

  • Wanting to disrupt patterns that no longer feel of use to you?

You do not have to face this alone, I will provide a space to honor your grief and rage while making room for joy, imagination, and self-exploration.

My Approach

I am passionate about working from decolonial and abolitionist frameworks. I believe that how we support and show up for ourselves and each other is at the core of creating alternatives to the systems and structures that we live in.    

While I bring clinical knowledge, YOU are the expert of your own experience. I see myself as a partner in your healing journey and am committed to co-creating a container for you to make meaning of your lived experience as you reconnect and strengthen your relationship and trust to self.

Modalities and Ideologies That Inform My Therapeutic Approach

My lived experience as a Black, transgender, first generation African is not separated from my approach to therapy. Among many ideologies, my approach is deeply informed by Abolitionist & Black Feminist Frameworks, Disability Justice, Fat Liberation, and Harm Reduction.
