My Approach
My approach is conversational, sometimes light-hearted, and always non-judgmental. I work with people on recognizing unhelpful patterns, understanding where they come from, and developing tools that better serve you. While we work together I want you to feel comfortable to be your authentic self and show up as you are. I’m here to celebrate your strengths and experiences, while also gently challenging you to help move towards your goals.
As a Black queer woman, I deeply understand the complexities of navigating life at the intersection of multiple identities. I believe that your identity and culture play a vital role in your healing journey. I approach our work together through an anti-racist, feminist, Health at Every Size (HAES), and trauma-informed lens.
-
Culture
Understanding unique backgrounds - family, community, and cultural identity is crucial in healing. I have both specialized training and lived experience that prepares me to work with Black people and queer and trans folks.
-
Trauma-informed
I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced trauma, grief, and loss. I provide space to acknowledge the impacts of these experiences and collaboratively work towards healing.

HAES-aligned
I practice Health at Every Size (HAES) principles, focusing on improving your well-being at any body size. I believe in a non-judgmental approach to health that prioritizes your overall well-being rather than focusing on ones weight.
