A protected space to reconnect with yourself.
Culturally responsive telehealth psychotherapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, identity, relationships, burnout, grief, and life transitions. Available to clients physically located in Georgia or New York at the time of session.
Care that holds your whole context.
- Adults of all genders navigating identity, culture, belonging, and life transitions.
- Black professionals and high-achieving adults carrying more than people see.
- Women, men, and nonbinary adults seeking culturally responsive care that honors their whole story.
- LGBTQ+ people, including queer women, femmes, trans, and nonbinary adults, seeking affirming care.
- Individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, grief, burnout, relational patterns, and change.
- Anyone who wants care that does not flatten culture, identity, spirituality, ambition, or complexity.
Direct and relational, grounded in evidence.
My clinical work is culturally responsive, relational, direct, and grounded in evidence-informed practice. I draw from CBT, ACT, mindfulness, trauma-informed care, identity-aware practice, and African-centered frameworks when clinically appropriate. My clinical training includes a Clinical and Research Postdoctoral Fellowship in LGBT Health at Columbia University Irving Medical Center.
I do not pathologize identity. I do not ask you to translate yourself to be understood. I work with the full context of who you are and the systems that shaped you.

From first hello to ongoing work.
Starting therapy should not feel like stepping into the unknown. Here is how the work begins, and how it unfolds.
A complimentary consultation. We start with a free 15-minute call. This is not a therapy session or a clinical relationship. It is where we both talk openly about what brings you in, your needs, logistics, fees, and how I work, and decide together whether we are a good fit.
Intake and paperwork. Once we both agree it is a fit, I send your intake forms and a few brief assessments. When everything is returned, we schedule your first session.
The first session, a clinical interview. The first one or two sessions are what clinicians call a clinical interview. Early on it can feel a little more structured as I ask questions to understand your context and history, begin talking through symptoms, and we build rapport. You are also telling me how you work best, and we shape the approach together, mine and yours.
A treatment plan we build together. After those first sessions, I develop a treatment plan and bring it back to you for your feedback, questions, and clarity. We talk through the likely length of therapy and the modalities I tend to use, and we adjust until it fits before we go on.
The ongoing work. Once we agree, sessions become more process-oriented, focused on your symptoms and goals and on co-creating a space of healing and clarity. Session length depends on you and the work in front of us.
Nothing is required of you except showing up as you are. Sessions are private and held over HIPAA-secure telehealth, so you can settle in from wherever you feel most comfortable.
If you are in immediate danger or need urgent support, call 911, call or text 988, or go to the nearest emergency department. ClearMinds is not an emergency service.
