However, a college course in positive psychology led her to explore the world of mental health—where she discovered her true calling in creating spaces for people to feel truly seen and supported.

She focuses on empowering Black adolescent girls by boosting their self-esteem and supports sensitive adolescents & young adults of color dealing with anxiety, perfectionism, and relationship challenges. Her approach is person-centered, creative, and holistic.

Most of my teen clients feel that anxiety has consumed their whole lives. They also identify as perfectionistic, depressed, and lonely. They are very creative, an overachiever or an over-procrastinator, and an emotional sponge. They may have a difficult time focusing in school and prioritize their relationships. Since they feel so deeply, they tend to feel ashamed of their emotions and work towards being someone different. Through art-making, mindfulness and tarot cards, I will help you to to live with less anxiety and have more fun.
