​

express your worries

Through your intake paperwork and first 2 sessions we will explore the challenges or problem(s) that brings you to therapy and any relevant background information that will be helpful in your treatment process.

What Our Clients Say

"My initial introduction to therapy wasn't great and I wasn't sure that I would find that right fit.

Simply Redefining literally redefined my previous experiences. I found a therapist who not only gives you practical and clinical advice but who also prays with you and gives you faith-led tools to keep you focused while growing. That's a win for me. 

 

As someone who is grieving, in the midst of transition, caring for others and running a business,

I needed help navigating it all...and that's just what I got. "

O.R.

SR provides  therapy and coaching for professionals + entrepreneurs of color that cultivates positive mental health, career and life success.

how do we do it?

Jesus + Therapy 

No really, we use a christian faith-based approach along with relevant practical methods to redirect focus, goals, and language. Beginning with a spotlight on your strengths, we use them to  uncover areas of challenge. With this new information we can then apply integrative tools that reach and fortify each area of your life.
