I provide trauma-informed therapy for:
I specialize in providing counseling to help folx across the lifespan process:
As a black man from the south, it can feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders all the time. Having to hide how you truly feel in order to feel safe. Wanting to have access to all the feelings that a human is allowed to have, granting yourself permission to experience anger, joy, peace, safety, serenity, and love.
Other people’s expectations are exhausting. Trying to live up to them feels inauthentic, unfulfilling, like a burden, unrealistic, and not values aligned. You’d much rather move through the world as your TRUE self. Living by your own standards and wishes would be a hell of a lot more enjoyable.
As a former people pleaser and perfectionist, I know first hand how difficult it is to honor your own experience and live out your own values when the fear of letting others down is painful. The feelings of guilt and shame not allowing you to find your own path toward freedom. Constantly, searching for a place to belong and call home.
It was during my own experience in therapy that I began to understand the importance of someone else affirming and validating my journey in the world. I was able to connect with my body and learn how to be present with myself so I could identify my own needs and create my own expectations so that my dreams could grow and breathe again. I learned how to stop trying to be the hero for everyone else and remembered that I was worth saving as well.
As a therapist, I strive to provide a compassionate space where you can do the work to move from a state of surviving to a state of thriving . I understand that healing is a journey and does not happen overnight. Progress is never straightforward, and my goal is to create a place to be with the good, bad, and the ugly. I want you to walk away feeling empowered, confident, and HUMAN.
When I am not being a therapist, you can find me spending time with my partner and dog trying new restaurants or spending time with close family and friends. During the football season I usually am cheering for the Clemson Tigers. GO TIGERS! I enjoy writing, listening to music, cooking new dishes, and making/drinking coffee with a good book.
