I work with folks who are experiencing a range of challenges, including identity and relationship conflicts, anxiety, depression, addiction, and trauma. My practice is sex positive and affirming to folks in queer, kink, non-monogamy, and sex work communities. I welcome clients of all races and racial identities, countries of origin, gender identities, sexual orientations, religions, abilities, and body sizes. I'm particularly familiar with feelings of “otherness” - disconnection from society at large, loved ones, and self. I offer psychotherapy sessions as safe spaces where I help my clients confront these feelings and work to understand themselves, their worlds and their behaviors better. I approach treatment with an appreciation for the diverse range of identities and worldviews held by my clients, and make room for their full expression during sessions. I am attuned to questions regarding gender and sexuality and invite clients who are in the process of exploring these and other parts of self.

I believe having clarity about the WHY you do, say, and think the way you do begins with denying the narrative that you are too “booked and busy” to peel back those layers of your identity hidden from the world. These are the parts of us that both consciously and unconsciously influence our daily interactions, and keep us conditioned to believe we have to negotiate space rather than command it! Your joy, dreams, and purpose matter, so less pouring from an empty cup and more claiming the life you deserve! I'm Dr. Dominique, a Licensed Psychologist at The Black Girl Doctor, and if any of this resonates with you I'd love to connect! I specialize in creating a safe space to slay self-doubt by changing the narrative. Why? Because we are what we say and what we think! Integrating evidenced based treatment with a short term, strength based, and culturally informed approach, we will laugh, explore, and unpack. We will discuss underlying beliefs, generational traumas, and internalized oppression that keep you from achieving your desires. My aim is to empower you to become your own #goals by being intentional and accountable as the best version of yourself at home, work, and in relationships!

Many of my clients are original thinkers working in creative fields. My work is connecting with you: that's how new ideas and possibilities arise.

As a Certified Sex Therapist and systems thinker practicing Solution Focused Brief Therapy, I focus intently on discovering what works for your particular situation & context. What you want is achieved by adding what you know about yourself to what I know about relationships, how human sexuality really works, human behavior and habits. A big part of my work is defining success by your criteria: you decide what your goals are and when they've been met. Since therapy with me should encourage and give you confidence to master future challenges, you schedule only as many sessions as you find helpful. I check in frequently on your progress and make adjustments to make the work is on track.

I have been in the field for 10 years working with children, teens, adults and seniors dealing with anxiety, depression, OCD, life transitions, relationship/family conflict, divorce and domestic violence. I view each individual or family as unique and approach therapy in the same way, meeting them where they are at.

Change is possible. You CAN feel better. You may be skeptical that what you're struggling with can be helped, blaming and judging yourself instead.

Maybe others would look at you and think everything is fine, great even - but inside, you struggle. You might consider yourself an over-achiever or people-pleaser, even if you come off as independent. We'll define the main issues in your life, whether based in the past/present/future and identify strategies to help you feel less stressed in the day to day, while also exploring your experiences to gain a deeper understanding of the story of how you came to be who you are, and write the story you want for your life moving forward.

Are you constantly “on”, saying yes to everything and everyone? Do you feel like despite how many accomplishments you achieve, it will never be enough? Do you sense the need to slow down, say no, set boundaries, but often doubt yourself? Do you appear calm outside, but inside there's a storm of anxiety and insecurity? Does this disconnect you from yourself and others? Are you often dismissive of these behaviors, thinking “They can’t be that bad; they’ve gotten me this far”? And it’s true, they’re not bad. You had to push past your needs and adapt to the demands of your childhood. Despite the trauma, you’ve survived and you want to finally prioritize yourself. You desire vulnerable and open connection with yourself and the people around you. You want to honor your body, energy, and emotions by prioritizing your needs. There’s strength and resilience in how you’ve overcome but, you’re ready to feel more connected to yourself. I’m so glad you’re here. I help young people acknowledge coping patterns from trauma and find more supportive ways to deeply connect with themselves and others, while prioritizing their energetic and emotional needs. We are partners on this journey, and I look forward to walking with you on your path of healing and self-discovery.
