I’m a Black, queer, Southern woman and a reformed church girl. I was raised with the values that shape so much of the South: faith, family, and tradition. For a long time, I lived by those expectations. I overworked and suppressed my needs and desires hoping for validation that simply never came. At some point I was overwhelmed and so filled with dread that I decided to live my life the way that I wanted to - that I would no longer let others dictate who I would become.

My Approach

It is the intersection of my identities that informs the heart of my work. I’m a licensed clinical social worker, therapist, and community nurturer committed to creating affirming spaces where Black queer women and non-binary folks can heal, feel seen, and reconnect with their most authentic selves.

I help Black queer women who are sensitive high-achievers reconnect with their bodies and release survival patterns through embodied, creative, and culturally affirming care. 

My approach blends Brainspotting, polyvagal-informed therapy, and emotion-focused, somatic, and mindfulness-based practices to support deep nervous-system healing and self-trust. 

Beyond therapy, I extend this work through workshops, creative tools, and community offerings that center rest, ritual, and radical self-compassion helping people who’ve always had to be strong learn how to be soft again.

A Note

Choosing to embrace yourself can feel overwhelming, especially when the world hasn’t always made space for you or your truth. My work centers emotional safety, attunement, and a return to your own grounded wisdom. My hope is that after our sessions, you leave feeling just a little more free, more centered, and more affirmed in the truth that you are already good, just as you are. If you’re ready to reconnect with who you are and live life on your terms, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
