About

As an African-American female mental health counselor, I bring a unique and culturally sensitive perspective to the field of mental health care. My background and experiences provide a foundation for understanding the intersection of cultural, racial, and gender-related issues that can significantly impact one's mental well-being. I am committed to fostering an environment of trust, empathy, and inclusivity where clients of all backgrounds feel heard, understood, and supported in their journey toward mental health and well-being. My counseling approach is rooted in a deep appreciation for the diverse backgrounds and experiences that make up the world. I strive to empower my clients to embrace their identities, explore their strengths, and navigate the challenges they face. I recognize that historical and societal factors have contributed to unique stressors within many communities, and I am dedicated to helping individuals develop resilience, coping strategies, and a renewed sense of purpose. In my practice, I emphasize the importance of self-care, self-acceptance, and building a strong support system to help my clients achieve their mental health goals. Together, we work towards breaking down stigmas surrounding mental health, creating a space where healing and growth can flourish.
