I am licensed with over 20 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, LGBT-related issues, relationship issues, & family conflicts. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we will establish a foundation for a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship. This session will give you a chance to get comfortable with the process, discuss your concerns and start building trust.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked with diverse populations over the years , the pandemic brought many unique circumstances to the forefront. My innate ability to adjust to these situations to empower individuals to make decisions, think rationally and transitionally adapt to the life they want to create has provided me with a great sense of satisfaction to see people transition to be the people they long to become.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I'm passionate about working with individuals who are committed to making meaningful changes in their lives and who strive to become the best versions of themselves. I find it fulfilling to support people who are motivated to grow, learn, and develop self-awareness, even when the journey is challenging.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Faith based therapy
I believe that by utilizing a faith based treatment approach, individuals are able to recognize the interconnectedness of mental health, emotional and overall spiritual well being to help them work through life challenges.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is a scientifically proven approach to help individuals learn to recognize thinking distortions that are creating problems within their lives. Once gaining a better understanding of the behaviors and reevaluating the thinking distortions in light of reality, I have seen amazing results.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
In my experience, the solution focused approach is beneficial for individuals looking to focus more on the future and what they can do now rather than focusing on past events. By focusing on identifying strengths, problem solving skills and improved communication skills this is great for individuals looking for short term treatment.
