Welcome to Embracing Wellness, where wellness begins with vulnerability, holistic healing and compassionate care. Embracing Wellness is a Black woman-owned therapy practice serving DC, Maryland, Virginia, and Florida that was born out of a deep passion for supporting Black women and femmes navigating life’s challenges and finding their path to wellness. Our mission is to provide compassionate, holistic, culturally sensitive, LGBTQIA+ affirming, trauma-informed care that empowers individuals and communities to heal, grow, and thrive. Our trauma-informed care ensures that every session is an inclusive, safe and supportive space where you can embrace wellness through vulnerability.

As historically oppressed and marginalized people, we have learned to survive by appearing strong, stoic, fearless and unwavering in the face of pervasive pain, trauma and suffering. Embracing Wellness is a safe and empowering space for Black women and femmes to be radically vulnerable and authentic as we exist, heal, and thrive outside of these expectations and our roles as caretakers, professionals or both. By embracing our vulnerabilities, we embrace wellness and open the door to transformative healing.

Compassion is integral to the care provided at Embracing Wellness. Black women care for a world that has been historically unkind in return; I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where you can receive the compassionate care and support you deserve.

We believe that true wellness encompasses the mind, body, and spirit. Together we will develop an individualized treatment plan using evidence based interventions to enhance your mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual wellbeing. Interventions include: Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Attachment-Based, Narrative, Person-Centered, Psychodynamic, Solution Focused, and Strength-Based therapy

I look forward to the privilege of working with you.
