it’s okay to feel.

I specialize in supporting individuals, couples, and groups on a journey of deep healing and transformation. My approach is grounded in understanding how trauma impacts the nervous system and how reconnecting with your body can lead to lasting recovery.

I’m dedicated to helping you heal from trauma, reclaim trust in your body, and build the nurturing relationships you deserve.

I’m a Black, Queer, relational therapist based in Oakland, California. I use a trauma-informed, body-centered approach, to work with clients from all walks of life—especially those with the following identities:

  • LGBTQIA+ and gender expansive folks

  • BIPOC communities

  • Non-monogamous & non-traditional relationships

  • Neurodiverse folks

  • Complex Trauma (C-PTSD)

  • Those on the ace/asexual spectrum

    Whether you're seeking individual therapy, partnership support, or family therapy, I am here to help you find healing, cultivate self-compassion, and move toward deeper connection with yourself and others.
