“The axe forgets, but the tree remembers.”

~African Proverb

We face many obstacles in life, but our most significant accomplishment is finding peace during our storms. Our most notable achievement is recognizing that there is always room to grow and improve and be better than where we were the day before. As we live our daily lives, I aim to help people identify their strengths, and superpowers to help them overcome the many obstacles and barriers.

My duty is to ensure that there is always a safe space with my clients so that clients can always feel safe while welcoming laughter and humor. As I know that the stigma of therapy can be taboo for specific cultural backgrounds, I strive to make sure that I am creating a different experience for those who may be hesitant about reaching out for assistance.

I hold a Bachelor of Science Degree in Professional Interdisciplinary Studies and a Minor in Music from Jackson State University in Jackson, MS. I also have a Master of Arts Degree in Clinical Mental Health from Roosevelt University, Chicago, IL, and I am currently enrolled as a doctoral student of Philosophy in Family Marriage Therapy at National University in San Diego, CA. My therapeutic approach is welcoming all walks of life into a comfortable therapeutic space using Solution-Focused, Intensive Structural Therapy, and Narrative Therapy.

My clinical areas of focus are working with adolescence, behavioral issues, Childhood trauma, intergenerational trauma/PTSD, anxiety/depressive disorder, self-esteem, men and women issues, infidelity/ relationship issues, marital and premarital, grief, stress, communities of color, oppression, mindfulness, self-care, shadow work, and grounding.
