About

You’ve been strong for everyone else. Now it’s time to be supported. As Black and Brown women, we often carry a quiet weight—always showing up, always pushing through. The world praises our strength, but rarely asks how we’re really doing. This expectation known as the Superwoman Schema can leave us feeling isolated, emotionally exhausted, and unseen. It tells us we have to do it all, all the time. You don’t have to live that way. My counseling practice is a space where you can exhale. Where you don’t have to explain your culture, code-switch your emotions, or shrink your truth. Here, your whole self is welcomed. I work with Black and Brown adult women who are ready to let go of survival mode and move toward balance, clarity, and peace. You deserve support that affirms who you are and honors where you’ve been. Through culturally-affirming counseling, I support women in reclaiming peace, processing life’s challenges, and prioritizing their own healing journey.
