I have over 18 years of experience of experience in the social services field. I received my Master of Social Work from the illustrious Alabama A&M University in 2006. Currently as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I have focused my skill set on mental health. I believe in meeting the client where they are at and being compassionate in order to establish relationships to promote client growth.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Has the journey of life been an uphill battle? Has the twist and turns caused you to lose focus on your path? If so, I would love to help. There is no roadmap to a happy and fulfilling life. However, many of us have the tools and the strength to make it through life's difficult circumstances. Together we will build self-efficacy. Therapy structured and focused on you. Out of the box thinking and perspectives is what makes my sessions so unique. Accept this standing ovation!!!!!! You've taken the first step to healing!!!! IT'S ONLY UP FROM HERE!!!!!!

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I specialize in helping individuals who may have experienced trauma, depression, anxiety, crisis, anger management issues, grief/loss and relationship issues to name a few. Life has no cookie cutter; however, we will utilize the holistic approach to healing.

It is important to grasp the concept that our thoughts control our feelings which in turn controls our actions.

Grief Therapy

Understanding that grief can be a lifelong process aids in finding peace in the feeling of loss.

Motivational Interviewing

Belieivng that change is possible, listening with empathy and empowerment is the core.

Narrative

Allowing the client to tell their story is beneficial to processing feelings.
