About

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a heart for people. Driven by passion and purpose, I chose the path of mental health counseling as a way to educate, empower, and encourage women, children, and adolescents to initiate change and strive towards a better tomorrow. Valuing the counselor-client relationship, I seek to truly know each of my clients. I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology at the Florida A & M University and a Master of Science degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at the University of North Florida. I am credentialed as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor for the state of Florida.
