women’s therapy in north carolina, Virginia and Florida

I know you carry the weight of the world on your shoulders—the weight of other people’s expectations—at work, in relationships, and the weight of your own— it can feel unbearable. You’ve spent so much time living up to what others need or expect from you that your own needs have been pushed aside, and you probably don’t even realize it. You’ve become so used to being “the strong one” that you’ve forgotten what it’s like to focus on your needs—or maybe you’re not even sure what they are anymore.

You’re accomplished, self-aware, and you’ve done the work. You’ve checked off most, if not all, the boxes of success. Yet, despite all your achievements, something still feels missing. The self-doubt lingers, that relentless inner critic grows louder, and you’re left wondering why, despite everything you’ve done, you’re still left feeling incomplete or asking yourself, “What’s next?”

You’re the one everyone depends on—the rock, the problem-solver, the go-to person for everyone else’s crises. But when was the last time you felt seen, heard, and genuinely supported? When did you last prioritize your own needs instead of pouring everything into others?

What if the missing piece wasn’t about “thinking” your way through, but actually feeling your way into the life you want? What if you could finally drop down into your body, learn to connect with all the parts of yourself—the parts you’ve intellectualized, avoided, or dismissed—and begin to truly heal?

What if you could invest in a space that doesn’t just listen to your thoughts but helps you feel your emotions, experience them fully, and reclaim the life you’ve always desired? It’s time to invest in a solution that goes beyond surface-level fixes—a space where your growth is prioritized, your voice is heard, and you’re guided to reconnect with the deepest parts of yourself.

You’ve already invested so much time, energy, and money into trying to feel whole again. Isn’t it time to finally choose a path that delivers the transformation you deserve—one that helps you drop from your head into your heart and truly embrace all of who you are?

If you’re nodding along, you’re in the right place. I’m here to help you break free from the cycles of self-doubt, burnout, and perfectionism. Together, we’ll uncover the patterns that have held you back, challenge the beliefs that no longer serve you, and create a path toward the life you’ve always known was possible.

Hey there, I'm America!

Imagine working with a therapist who truly gets it—who gets you.

Someone who understands the weight of being a (strong) Black woman, the (exhausted) eldest daughter, the (anxious) perfectionist, and the (guilt-ridden) achiever—the one who carries everyone else’s burdens but rarely has a moment to breathe for herself.

Someone who knows that self-prioritization isn’t just a luxury; it’s a necessity for your well-being.

I believe that within a space of genuine understanding, collaboration, and compassion, you can learn to HAVE A HEALTHIER RELATIONSHIP WITH yourself AND OTHERS. With years of experience guiding high-achieving Black women through their healing journey, I’m committed to helping you reclaim your worth, knowing you deserve to heal, love, and accept yourself as you truly are. You’ve come to the right place. to real, lasting change.

True healing isn’t about fixing yourself; it’s about rediscovering the wholeness that’s always been within you.

  • Painful or distressing past experiences are extremely common. These experiences don’t have to have power over you and you don’t have to let them define you or the life you live. Together, we can get you back in the driver’s seat and live the life you want and deserve.

  • Self-doubt, insecurities, or that constant feeling of not being good enough—it’s exhausting, isn’t it? But here's the thing: it doesn’t have to stay that way. Together, we'll dig deep, face the real stuff head-on, and help you move from just surviving to actually embracing who you are. It's about shifting from "maybe I'm enough" to knowing you truly are—flaws, strengths, and all.

  • having a baby and parenthood has a way of turning your whole world upside down and changing everything: physically, emotionally, mentally, socially, personally, and professionally. you can get back to feeling like you and living the life you always envisioned.

  • I know that the weight of anxiety, the mood swings, or just that constant feeling of being ‘off’ can be a lot to carry.

    But it doesn’t have to be this way. Together, we’ll get to the bottom of what's really going on, break down those overwhelming feelings, and help you regain a sense of control, calm, and confidence. It’s time to stop just coping and start living fully again.
