About Me

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) specializing in individual and couples therapy in the areas of prenatal, perinatal, and postpartum experiences, with a specific interest in providing support to African-American women, and their families/support systems, within this phase of life. I am a certified continuing education provider through the California Association of Marriage and Family Therapist (CAMFT). And I'm also a proud member of the Bay Area Chapter of the Association of Black Psychologist (ABPsi). I am virtually based in the Bay Area (California). 

I provide a plethora of educational experiences for others through the many other services I offer: workshops, trainings, speaking engagements, supervision, and cultural consultations. These services help others become more culturally sound in the work they are doing with African-Americans, particularly in the realm of the prenatal, perinatal, and postpartum experiences. I have a passion for bringing awareness to the issues regarding Black maternal and infant health with a particular interest in supporting Black women and Black mothers. I have nearly 20 years of clinical experience, and a lifetime of lived experience, which has assisted me in shaping my cultural work over the years. Feel free to take a peek below at a few of the things I've done over the years. I'm looking forward to connecting with you.
