I specialize in providing counseling to help folx across the lifespan process:
I first knew I wanted to become a therapist during my AP Psychology class in high school. I took a couple of detours along the way. I explored non-profit, educational, and church settings. Eventually, I found myself back on the path to becoming a therapist. My journey helped me to understand then that dreams need space to grow and breathe again and that the path to achieving a dream does not need to be direct or uncomplicated. As a black man who has experienced therapy himself, I understand the need to destigmatize mental health and create spaces for others that look like me to do the same. It is in my own experience that I unlocked a passion and ability to bear witness to the pain of life and to be an advocate for those experiencing that pain. I understand that it takes strength to show up in a space to talk about the individual, familial, and societal stressors that constantly impact our ability to honor ourselves.
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 of self-exploration and that means you must have an active voice in the process. My own faith and spiritual beliefs inform my desire to walk alongside people through the various difficulties and circumstances they face in life. I use a mixture of evidence-based practices to guide my interaction with people to make sure they are getting the best care and able to show up as their authentic selves.
When I am not being a therapist, you can find me spending time with my partner trying new restaurants or spending time with close family and friends. During the football season I usually am cheering the Clemson Tigers to victory. I enjoy writing, listening to music, and making/drinking coffee with a good book.
