For more than two decades, I’ve sat with people in some of their most vulnerable moments—times when life feels heavy, confusing, or painfully uncertain. I’ve witnessed how depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and self‑doubt can quietly shape a person’s world, and I’ve also seen the strength that emerges when someone finally has a space where they don’t have to carry it alone. My work is rooted in the belief that every person’s story deserves to be met with respect, curiosity, and compassion. Clients often come to me during major life transitions or when relationships feel strained or overwhelming. Others arrive feeling isolated, unsure of their purpose, or disconnected from their own voice. Together, we slow things down. We make room for emotions that have been pushed aside. We explore patterns that once protected you but now keep you stuck. And we build the resilience needed to move toward a life that feels more aligned and grounded. Culturally responsive care is central to how I practice. I honor the identities, histories, and lived experiences each client brings into the room. Whether you’re navigating workplace stress due to the trauma of individual or institutional racism , ageism, healing from relational wounds, or searching for deeper self‑understanding, my intention is to offer a steady, empathetic presence as you find your way forward. This is a space where you don’t have to perform, please, or pretend. You get to be fully human—and fully supported—as you grow.

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who chose this profession later in life because I have always had the desire to help others in ways that will really make a difference in their lives. I am empathetic and a good listener. I provide emotional support to my clients without judgment. Many of my clients have suffered from trauma, isolation, and rejection from family and friends. Some of my clients have experienced episodes of self harm, suicidal ideations, and suicide attempts. I primarily use a client centered approach, as I believe that clients are capable of making the right decisions for their lives with the right support. In addition, I use other therapeutic modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy, rational emotive behavior therapy, mindfulness, positive psychology, anger management, motivational interviewing, and coping skills for anxiety and depression. I prefer to work with adults, but will work with older adolescents as well. Mental health is as important as physical health, and when one suffers, the other suffers as well. So many people do not seek the help they need because of fear of being labeled or stigmatized. As human beings, we are creatures of memory, and sometimes our pasts keep us from becoming the person we want to be. I want to be the one to help you become your best self.

Over the years, I have worked with clients experiencing the emergence of first and secondary trauma, violence, mental, emotional, anxiety, depression, and behavioral problems, along with other debilitating mental health disorders at many levels. My experience includes assessing, diagnosing, and treating mental health and behavioral disorders in a State approved private outpatient community mental health center. The center services children, adolescents, families, and adults. Currently, I am transitioning from the role at the community center as clinical director into private practice. I describe my approach to helping clients as integrative. I draw from a variety of modalities to meet the individual therapeutic needs of the individual client. The most frequent integration of modalities includes but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Motivational Interviewing (MI), Mindfulness-based Therapy, and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT). Based on faith-based beliefs, the named modalities are integrated in the healing process. In summary, I view the therapeutic relationship as a partnership that requires honesty, trust, integrity, respect, and mutual communication. I wholeheartedly believe the integrative approach is embedded in a holistic stance by focusing on the whole person. My intrinsic approach meets the client with empathy, care, concern, and supported hope to become a healthier person for self, others, and society at large. Hopefully, what I have shared will give you some insight as to select the best fit for a therapist. Should you choose me, I look forward to our journey together.

I consider the journey to self awareness and understanding a sacred journey, and one that is vital for desired change. Time is a precious commodity, and I will challenge you to maximize yours to achieve desired results. Additionally, it is a process that I myself continue to do, so be assured that there is nothing that I will ask you to do that I have not done myself.
