I help Black women understand themselves better and feel more secure in the relationships that matter most to them.

We all want to connect and belong – in fact, we need to.  It’s necessary for our survival.

A quick search of the internet will give you a thousand resources on how to improve romantic relationships but falls incredibly short on information specific to Black women and how to navigate relationships with our siblings, parents, and friends. 

I’m a good fit for you if:

• You feel left behind by the people who matter to you

• You feel envious of people who have close friendships

• You never feel like you can count on your family

• You make efforts to ensure that nobody really knows you

• You start planning your escape as soon as you notice something is off

• You spend a lot of time proving your value to people

• You have a hard time doing what you tell yourself you’re going to do

• You disappear when things in your life aren’t going well

• You feel lonely most of the time

• You don’t feel like you were loved very much growing up

• You have a difficult time making or keeping friends

Each person I work with has specific a set of circumstances and has a pretty good idea of what they’d like to work on.   All of us, if we’re honest, have a tough time changing – especially if what we’ve been doing feels like second nature.    

Through many years of work and experience, I have learned that loving, authentic relationships with our chosen people are the bedrock of a life of wellness.  However, we are taught to chase romantic love and that the goal of every woman should be to be chosen.  

No one talks about how vital friendship and other non-romantic relationships are to our sense of self, and our ability to get through profoundly difficult times.  

When we enter into any kind of relationship, we bring with us our unique perspectives, beliefs, and behaviors which can make for very complicated circumstances.  

Through a trauma-trained lens and evidence-based methodologies that incorporate identity and a self-compassion approach, I’ll help you create a path to start understanding yourself on a deeper level and teach you how to grow lasting connections in all of your relationships.
