A psychologist.
A researcher.
A partner in your journey.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. I provide culturally responsive, evidence-based care for adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, pregnancy and postpartum mental health, burnout, grief, and major life transitions. Together, we’ll make sense of what’s brought you here while strengthening the clarity, resilience, and hope to move forward.
I believe meaningful change happens when evidence-based care meets genuine human connection. Grounded in both clinical practice and research, my work honors the complexity of your story and the strengths you already carry.

TUMAINI (t00-MAH-ee-nee)
Tumaini means hope in Swahili. Years ago, I made a promise to a dear sister friend that one day I would build something that carried this name. Today, that promise has become Tumaini Health, a practice grounded in the belief that hope is often where meaningful change begins. Hope isn’t something you have to earn before beginning therapy. It can exist alongside uncertainty, grief, anxiety, and change. Even when life feels overwhelming, hope creates space for resilience, renewed perspective, and the possibility of moving forward.
LET'S BEGIN
Hope isn't the destination.
It's where your journey starts.
If you're ready for therapy that honors your experiences and blends compassion with evidence-based care, I'd be honored to support you.
