I’m a licensed mental health therapist who works with adults ages 18 and older, and I believe therapy should feel empowering, collaborative, and genuinely supportive. My approach is warm, open-minded, and nonjudgmental. I want you to feel safe being your full self in session, and I aim to meet you where you are while helping you grow in ways that feel meaningful and sustainable.
I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Purdue University and my Master’s degree in Social Work from IUPUI, with a focus on addiction and mental health. My professional background includes two years in an outpatient mental health setting and one year working in residential treatment for substance use disorders. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how complex mental health and substance use can be—and how important it is to treat the whole person, not just symptoms.
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, addiction, emotional regulation difficulties, and life transitions. I enjoy helping clients explore patterns, build coping skills, and reconnect with their strengths. My style is collaborative and flexible, and I like to be creative in sessions when it’s helpful—whether that’s through reflective exercises, visual tools, or thinking outside the box to help things “click.”
Clients should know that I am someone who genuinely wants to hear them—especially if they feel overwhelmed, unseen, or lost in the chaos of daily life. I strive to create a space where it’s safe to be human, honest, and imperfect. I believe healing begins when we can talk openly about our pain, our hopes, and everything in between, without fear of judgment.
I am deeply committed to meeting clients exactly where they are and walking alongside them at a pace that feels right. I value trust, authenticity, and connection, and I take my role seriously as both a support and a collaborator in your healing process. Outside of therapy, I’m a lifelong learner, a big sports fan, and someone who finds grounding in working out, good food, and live music—reminders that joy and connection can exist alongside life’s hardest moments.

Bruised Not Broken Therapy was born out of the lack of Afrocentric based psychotherapy that allowed people of color to embrace their journey of life through the context of color. HIV, substance abuse, mental health and the denial of the experience of being a person of color continues to plague communities of color, as we still have yet to talk about these experiences.
