Together, we will explore your thoughts and emotions, strengthen self-compassion, and develop strategies to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and confident moving forward.

I earned my master’s degree in social work from Morgan State University and use a solution-focused, direct, and compassionate approach. I incorporate motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, existential therapy, and faith-based interventions, along with skills such as communication and decision-making support.
