ABOUT ME

My journey as a therapist is deeply personal, rooted in my own experience of immigrating to the United States as a teenager. Navigating the complexities of a new culture, language, and identity firsthand gave me a profound understanding of the unique challenges and strengths that emerge during such significant transitions. This personal history is the bedrock of my practice; it allows me to offer not just clinical support, but a genuine, culturally competent connection to individuals and families navigating their own paths of belonging and self-discovery.

Her therapeutic modalities include addiction counseling, anger management therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), cognitive processing therapy (CPT), compassion-focused therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), emotionally focused therapy (EFT), mindfulness-based stress reduction, motivational interviewing, music therapy, person-centered therapy, poetry and writing therapy, positive discipline, positive psychology, trauma-informed therapy, and strength-based therapy.

I provide a supportive and affirming space for adults grappling with anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, and grief. I specialize in working with immigrants, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), and the LGBTQIA2S+ community, and I have a dedicated focus on supporting those facing the emotional journey of infertility. I understand how these challenges can feel intensified by cultural expectations, systemic barriers, and the feeling of being caught between worlds. My approach is integrative and trauma-informed, drawing on evidence-based modalities to help you process your experiences, build resilience, and reconnect with your inner strength. My practice is built on a foundation of anti-racism and LGBTQIA2S+ affirmative care, ensuring a safe and validating environment for all.

My fluency in both English and Yoruba allows me to bridge linguistic and cultural gaps, offering therapy that honors your whole identity. I believe that healing happens in the context of a trusting relationship where you feel truly seen and understood. Together, we will work to navigate life's challenges, from the stresses of acculturation and identity exploration to the profound grief of infertility, empowering you to write the next chapter of your story with hope and purpose.
