About

About Me
My original plans were to pursue a nursing career, but life experiences afforded me the opportunity to pursue additional health professions; thus I chose another therapeutic occupation (Therapist) where there were various opportunities to work in the health industry. I am very glad I did. Not only do I enjoy being a part of the healthcare profession, I have learned that I enjoy meeting and helping people.

My Origin:
I was born in Mississippi, I am from a family of six children . A diversified healthcare promoter, educator and visionary, whose always had a passion to become a Health/Educator, who's focus was to assist individuals through life-changing events. My educational journey has been rather interesting in terms of the various degrees that I have obtained. I have recently earned a E.D. (doctorate) in higher education with a concentration in health education. I am a Mental Health/Health Promotions Practitioner who has specialized in holistic living instruction. I am very passionate about working with individuals who are experiencing major problems . My hope is to promote health and education, by being an advocate for the mind, body and renewing of the spirit for those seeking a new path in life.

My vision is clear:
I believe strength comes from within , by striving to holistically empower others through patience, knowledge and understanding, so that everyone can believe reaching the ideal YOU is within reach.

I am currently a mental health counselor licensed in Nebraska with over 15 years of experience working as a licensed mental health counselor and life coach. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, Bipolar and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, client-centered, narrative and solution focused counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
