I believe women deserve to take up space without apology
I work with high-achieving women of color who look successful on the outside but feel anxious, stuck, or disconnected on the inside. Together, we unpack core beliefs, cultural conditioning, and lived experiences that have taught you to shrink, over perform, or put yourself last.
My work focuses on helping you understand the roots of your anxiety… not just manage the symptoms. So you can stop living on autopilot and start living in alignment with who you actually are.
In therapy, we work on setting boundaries without guilt, prioritizing yourself without fear, and building a relationship with yourself that feels honest, confident, and secure.
You don’t need to become someone new. You get to come home to yourself.

-
I currently accept Aetna insurance.
If you have a difference insurance provider, I am considered an out-of-network provider, and many client choose to use their out-of-network benefits for reimbursement.
-
Yes. If you have out-of-network benefits, your insurance may reimburse you for a portion of each session after you meet your deductible. I provide monthly super bills that you can submit directly to your insurance company.
-
If you have out-of-network benefits, insurance companies typically reimburse 60–80% of the session fee after your deductible is met, depending on your specific plan.
Because coverage varies, I recommend confirming your benefits directly with your insurance provider. If it’s helpful, I’m happy to walk you through this during your free 15-minute consultation call and answer any questions along the way.
