About
One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. I applaud you on taking this first step in investing in your growth and personal development. Sometimes, we are faced with major life changes or challenges that alter our perspective on life, which directly impact our mental, emotional, and social well-being. By promoting a safe, judgement free, and shame free environment, my aim is to allow you the freedom to explore your experiences with a sense of curiosity, compassion, openness, and acceptance.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a range of experiences which has afforded me the opportunity to help various clients navigate through life’s many obstacles. My educational background consists of a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science from Southern University and A&M College-Baton Rouge, LA, Masters degree in History and African American studies from Florida A&M University, Master’s degree in Counseling from Prairie View A&M University, and is currently pursuing a Doctorate degree in Counselor Education and Supervision from Walden University. My background as a high school and college counselor also gives me a wealth of experience to draw from when working with families and young adults. My theoretical orientation consists of cognitive-behavioral therapy, person-centered theory, and solution-focused brief therapy.
As your counselor, I believe that the healing process begins by creating a safe environment and building and maintaining a strong therapeutic relationship. My ultimate goal is to empower you to make positive life changes while helping you develop confidence in your ability to achieve a healthy balance in all aspects of your life.
