Greetings Potential Clients and Partners in the Healing Journey. I am a Christian- Based, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (licensed in PA, MD and TX) as well as a Certified Trauma Sensitive Professional. I have worked with a myriad of populations ranging from persons living with HIV/AIDS, transient/homeless individuals, youth in school-based settings, dually-diagnosed persons to youth impacted by the judicial system. I specialize in trauma work with young children and teens. I believe in teaching tangible skills to work through trauma and give language to life experiences that are difficult to put into words. I develop spaces where you are able to feel seen, heard and believed. More importantly, I believe that change and healing are possible if you believe, do the work and trust the process. (Jeremiah 33:6)

Get to know me

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

The first session is the "getting to know you." This is just a conversation about who you are, what brought you here and what you are looking for.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I am warm, inviting and friendly. Seeking therapy is hard enough, you deserve to have someone who strives to make you feel safe.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

The ideal client for me as someone who is a Christian, faith-based therapist would be someone who is open to incorporating Christ, faith and biblical principles into their healing journey and therapeutic process. Are you someone who desires change and growth, willing to engage and looking to build tangible skills? If you are looking to address social-emotional, mental health and life challenges through a Christian worldview, then let's begin the journey together.

My treatment methods

Faith based therapy

Working through a healing journey can be difficult. Let's incorporate Christian-faith based biblical principles into our work in collaboration with other evidence-based practices.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT is an evidence-based intervention that supports the connection between our thoughts, feelings and actions. I will support you in navigating how each of those pieces work together and define tools tailored to your personal experience and comfort that will allow you to identify those connections and use them to work through your therapy goals.

Thank you for listening to me today I really appreciated it. Today was hard for me because I lost my mom four years ago and I really needed to cry and express how I was feeling and Ms Washington allowed me to do that. By the way today was my first session.
