Vision
We envision a world where Black women are fully seen, well-rested, and supported in a way that allows them to thrive—emotionally, mentally, and collectively. Through holistic therapy and collective healing rituals, we are redefining healing as a deeply personal and communal experience. Our work ensures that no Black woman has to navigate her wellness journey alone.

LICENSED PSYCHOTHERAPIST & FOUNDER OF THE W.O.T.I WELLNESS COLLECTIVE, PLLC
Hi, I'm Lyndsei!
glad you're here!
My approach to therapy is genuine, holistic, and deeply affirming. My authenticity is my longest-standing compliment—because, at my core, I’ve never been surface-level. I go deep. I offer warmth and comfort, even as I challenge you to lean into the uncomfortable work of healing. This balance of compassion and accountability is what my clients love most.
Beyond the professional titles you hold, the accolades, and the polished exterior you present to the world, I want to see the real you. I want you to know that all parts of you matter—even the ones you don’t love (yet).
I help amazing people navigating self-concept, relationships, complex trauma, burnout, perfectionism, life transitions, and grief. I also support those who can’t quite pinpoint an issue but feel deep down that something isn’t right. My work integrates Parts Therapy (IFS), Psychodynamic Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness based therapy—but more than that, therapy with me is a collaborative, tailor-made experience designed to meet you where you are and guide you home to yourself.
Because healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. And you don’t have to do it alone.

Welcome to WOTI Wellness, where we support your journey to become WHOLE on the Inside. We believe a core component of wholeness is alignment. Walk with us through our core values to get a preview of the atmosphere you’ll experience when we work together.

TAKE A DEEP BREATH
Compassion is at the core of everything we do. Self compassion is a challenge for many, yet a key ingredient for healing, so we weave it into the fabric of our work.
We create space for you to embrace your vulnerabilities with kindness and understanding, allowing for profound self discovery and acceptance.
“Be your WHOLE self,” is one of our favorite mottos. At WOTI Wellness we celebrate the uniqueness of each individual. Truth be told, we are evolving, often discovering new things about ourselves.
We create a safe space for exploration, expression and embodiment of your truest self without judgment.
We are committed to inclusivity. We welcome individuals from all walks of life, respecting and embracing the richness that comes from our differences.
Your unique experiences are valued, and our therapeutic approach is designed to be culturally sensitive and affirming.
We view individuals holistically, with respect to the interconnectedness of mind, body and spirit.
Our therapeutic practices are designed to take into consideration all these factors as we tailor make your treatment.
Kindness is the heartbeat of our practice. We believe in the power of compassion not only towards self but also in fostering healthy connections with others.
We are dedicated to creating a nurturing and supportive space where kindness is the foundation of every interaction.
Healing and personal growth are not solitary journeys; they thrive in the embrace of a supportive community. We believe that you are the expert of your story, so we opt for a collaborative method that gives you autonomy in your treatment. Studies show that success in therapy has more to do with the connection you have with your therapist than anything else.
We also understand that belonging is a fundamental human need, so we prioritize connection.
Alignment is when we listen to our intuition and move through the world embodying our true selves.
Alignment is when our thoughts, life-choices, and direction all honor our core values.
Alignment is function and action with ease.
our core
values!
You no longer have to navigate your path alone. Your journey toward alignment and wholeness begins here, where you'll find the courage and support needed to overcome any obstacle.
Life doesn't have to be a constant balancing act. You can have peace.
