Nice to meet you
I am a culturally responsive therapist specializing in working with Black and Brown individuals and clients from diverse backgrounds. As a Caribbean-born clinician, I bring a deep understanding of cultural and relational dynamics. I am trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and work with individuals, couples, and families to strengthen connection, improve communication, and support personal growth. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping clients build insight, resilience, and healthier relationships.
