About me

Come, let me lead you on a journey of self-discover! Your journey will be filled with possibilities and opportunities unlike traditional therapists. Our discussion will be interactive by utilizing experiential wisdom and clinical practice. I am a Doctor of Social Work and a scholar-practitioner with three social work degrees. I am an LCSW for Florida State and an LMSW for New York State. I provide therapeutic mental health services to adults. My greatest strength is helping people move beyond being stuck, feeling vulnerable and invisible to society. I have dedicated my professional life to serving others.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

People should know that I have many years of lived experiences as an HB (human being). I empathize with people who are stuck in trauma or just in life. I work very well with people who feel lonely and isolated. Also, people with severe mental health disorders do very well when I follow them from hospitalization to home.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strengths are empathy and communication. I have compassion and a nonjudgement presence for those individual diagnosed with gender dysphoria. Life does not happen without challenges, but through talk therapy; resilience, hope, and grit emerge.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Clinically, I am a humanistic therapist. I apply an eclectic approach to support clients, often drawing heavily on Person-Centered Theory. I am a Trauma-Informed clinician promoting safety, empowerment, and a healing culture. I am proud to work with the LGBTQ+ population and veterans. Through empowerment, clients find a connection with me.
