FEATURED PUBLICATIONS
Sharing tools for healing, resilience, and trauma-informed growth.
Healing
The Healers
For Black and POC clinicians, the cost of caring is often compounded by racialized stress, institutional pressure, and the expectation to keep going without rest.
Healing the Healers introduces the BYRD Model™, a somatic framework designed to support restoration, resilience, and embodied healing.
Grounded in nervous system science, liberation psychology, and lived experience, this book invites readers to reclaim safety, voice, rest, and agency.
Trauma &
Crisis Counseling
A structured, somatic, and culturally responsive workbook designed for graduate students, clinicians, and individuals engaged in trauma healing.
Integrating neurobiology, Somatic Experiencing principles, and the BYRD Model™, this resource offers practical tools for understanding trauma, supporting nervous system regulation, and applying trauma-informed concepts in real-world settings.
Ideal for clinical training, supervision, academic settings, and personal growth.
My Approach
I provide a culturally responsive, trauma-informed approach tailored to each client's unique experiences. My goal is to help individuals reconnect with their bodies, strengthen resilience, and move toward meaningful healing and balance.
I often describe my role as a manufacturer of hope and healing,supporting clients as they rediscover their capacity for growth, restoration, and transformation. Within a safe and supportive space, I help clients build self-awareness, develop emotional regulation skills, and create lasting change.
My work integrates somatic, evidence-based, and client-centered approaches that honor the connection between the mind, body, and lived experience.
