As an LGBTQIA ally and a woman of color, I understand the need for identity, acceptance, and purpose.
I am a Resident in Counseling with over 2 years of experience, and I specialize in working with caregivers, as well as individuals managing anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, relationship concerns, and life adjustments. My goal is to create a supportive and safe space where clients feel heard and understood. I am passionate about guiding people through life’s challenges while helping them develop tools that foster growth, resilience, and lasting positive change.
I hold a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University and a Master’s in Human Services from Purdue Global University. Through my training, I have gained experience in crisis intervention, mental health first aid, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness practices, which I integrate into my work.
I believe the key to any relationship is being present and meeting people where they are. I strive to provide space and opportunity for clients to speak freely without judgment, ensuring they feel supported and empowered. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and focused on helping individuals move forward with confidence.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.
