As a Black woman who has experienced depression and anxiety while trying to navigate life's challenges, I have a genuine understanding of how impactful they can be. On the other hand, I also seriously understand how having insight, the right tools, and a strong sense of self-worth can be so life changing.
I am a licensed mental health counselor who strives to create a warm, welcoming, and caring space where you can feel comfortable and understood. I work with teens and adults from all walks of life, supporting them through many different experiences and challenges. Together we set clear goals and work side by side, offering guidance and encouragement along the way. I have a lot of experience helping people manage depression, anxiety, and life transitions, build confidence, heal from trauma, and learn healthy boundaries. My practice is all about making sure you feel safe, supported, and confident as you make personal growth.
I love to build a strong rapport with clients early on, so they feel safe enough to address the difficult things that may arise in therapy. My approach to therapy primarily involves Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and trauma-informed care. I focus on helping clients feel empowered and ready to take on life's challenges.
No matter where you are in your journey, you can be confident that you have a partner in this process. Together, we will celebrate your successes, navigate challenges, and build on your strengths to help you move forward.

Cognitive behavioral therapy is a good approach for children, as it involves reducing anxiety and learning new ideas and new ways to channel the child’s feelings and energy. It is beneficial because it will help him or her identify their inner thoughts and replace the negative ones with more positive, helpful ones. Good therapy will be present and forward-oriented and will likely utilize modalities such as talking, playing, or other activities to help the child express feelings and thoughts.
Child therapy sessions will focus on teaching the following tools:
The client is making meaningful progress in child therapy when the child is actively participating in sessions, maintaining the gains made during therapy, and there is a noticeable change in the child's behavior and mood outside of sessions at home, school, etc.
Clients can supplement their time in child therapy with worksheets, games, and intentional participation in activities to promote ways to implement tools and strategies that were taught during the sessions.
To prepare a child for the first therapy session, the parent/guardian should set aside time to have a conversation. Briefly, in a couple of sentences, talk about the challenges. Stick with the facts, including what you’ve tried so far to help and how it’s worked out. Let them know that you have decided to ask for more help and you’ve made an appointment for counseling. Tell them when it is, the counselor’s name, and what they’ll do there. Ask if they have any questions, thoughts, or feelings about the appointment. Explore their beliefs about counseling.

As adults, we know that society puts pressure on us every day. Work responsibilities, family commitments, and societal pressures; expectations that cause stress, worry and feelings of inadequacy. What we oftentimes don’t realize is that society places those same pressures on our youth. Child therapists and teen counselors know that this has a direct impact on the self-esteem and self-worth of young individuals.
If you see promise in setting your child up with a therapist or counselor, consider working with a child therapist at Thriveworks Orlando, FL. These counselors specialize in child therapy, which means they’ve completed training and experience that enables them to best help these young people. To schedule a child therapy appointment, all you have to do is contact our office. We’re here to get started when you and your child are ready.
