Who I Work With

​

I work primarily with Black women who are feeling it, even when they cannot name it.

​

Maybe it is the loneliness of being surrounded by people and still feeling completely alone. The anger that comes out sideways at someone you love. The numbness that has replaced feelings you used to have. The anxiety that hums in the background no matter how much you accomplish. The shame that whispers you are still not enough.

​

Or maybe you just know something is off, and you are tired of pretending it is not.

​

Research on the Strong Black Woman schema shows that the cultural pressure to appear unbreakable is directly linked to self-silencing, depression, and avoiding the care you actually need. With over 15 years of clinical experience, and lived experience as a Black Caribbean woman, I built this practice for you specifically.

No pressure, no commitment. Just a conversation.

How We Work Together

​

I believe you get hurt in relationships. And you can heal in them too.

Therapy can be that safe relationship, the one place where you do not have to perform, explain, or hold it together for someone else.

I marry both root and depth work with the tools and guidance to help you move forward from the pain and the past.

​

My approach combines:

• Relational trauma work, getting to the root, not just the symptom

• Somatic healing, working with what lives in your body, not just your mind

• Culturally responsive care, your identity is not a footnote; it is the foundation

​

From our work together, you will:

• Understand how trauma shows up as anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and fear

• Set boundaries, even when guilt tells you not to

• Develop a more loving inner dialogue and relationship with yourself

• Cultivate connections that actually nourish you

• Develop a routine that supports you outside of therapy

• Manage difficult emotions with greater ease

Why Clients Choose OPS

Clients come to Odile Psychotherapy Service after years of therapy that never quite fit, providers who were skilled but could not meet them where they actually lived. They stay because this feels different.

​

This is a small, intentional practice. I work with a limited number of clients at a time so that the care is never rushed and never generic.
