Licensed therapist and performance consultant helping you transform challenges into opportunities for growth and achievement.

Welcome! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Mental Performance Consultant who combines traditional therapy with performance psychology to help you thrive. Born in Trinidad and Tobago and having worked with diverse clients across the U.S., I bring a unique perspective to supporting your growth and well-being. My approach integrates evidence-based therapy techniques with performance enhancement strategies, creating a powerful framework for both healing and achievement. Whether you're managing anxiety, navigating life transitions, seeking peak performance, or working through relationship challenges, we'll develop practical solutions tailored to your goals. In our sessions, you'll experience a collaborative partnership focused on creating lasting positive change. I offer more than traditional talk therapy – you'll gain concrete tools for managing stress, building resilience, improving focus, and optimizing performance in all areas of life. With over a decade of experience working with professionals, athletes, students, and families, I understand how to help you transform challenges into opportunities for growth.
