About Jolie


Feeling like you are drowning, swaying your arms and legs in every direction just to survive, is often one of the clearest signals that it is time to seek therapy. When life becomes too overwhelming and it feels like you can no longer keep yourself afloat, that is not a sign of weakness but a call for support. I am here to be your life jacket, offering stability, safety, and compassion through the storm. Over time, therapy will help you learn how to swim with confidence. You will begin to understand yourself more deeply, build emotional resilience, and connect with others through healthy boundaries and meaningful relationships. When the waves rise again, as they sometimes do, you can return to therapy and I will be here to support you until you are strong enough to navigate the challenges of life on your own.


I offer a safe and judgment-free space for you to feel seen, heard, and accepted exactly as you are. No matter your past choices or the pain you are carrying, whether from abuse, manipulation, or emotional overwhelm, I will meet you where you are and will walk with you. I listen deeply, offer tools for self-exploration, and always find a point of connection with you, whether through your culture, gender, family dynamics, or your unique way of seeing the world.


I believe the world is full of good people who sometimes make hard or painful choices, or are harmed by the choices of others. Whether you are the one who made the mistake or the one left holding the wound, therapy can help you make peace with your past, choose wisely in the present, and define the future you want. You can now book your appointment, email me anytime to ask your questions, or book a free 15-minute consultation call to have a casual conversation together.


Jolie’s Story


Five years ago, I began serving in orphanages in Kenya and later in prisons, where I witnessed how one genuine interaction could bring hope. Without offering material help, I saw how presence, care, and deep listening could be profoundly healing. I met with people carrying deep regret, hopelessness, and emotional pain. I have supported single mothers who were neglected or widowed, teens who were abandoned by their parents, and young people who survived physical and sexual abuse within their families. These experiences changed my life and gave me purpose. I chose to dedicate myself to being a listening ear and a helping hand for anyone in pain. I meet each person with curiosity, compassion, and the desire to understand their unique story. I believe healing happens through connection, and it is my role to learn how you cope, what you carry, and how I can walk alongside you as you heal.
