Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Atlanta, GA. I received my Masters from the Mercer University and have been practicing for 11 years. With extensive experience in mental health and a passion for empowering high-achieving women of color, I help you overcome challenges and achieve your personal and professional goals. Using evidence-based therapies like CBT, ACT, and SFBT, I support you in navigating career stress, burnout, and other obstacles to become the best version of yourself.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In your first session with me, you can expect a welcoming and supportive environment where we focus on understanding your unique needs and concerns. We will discuss your current challenges, personal history, and goals for therapy. This session is an opportunity for you to share openly, and for us to begin building a therapeutic relationship. Together, we will develop a plan tailored to help you achieve your desired outcomes, setting the foundation for your journey towards a more balanced and fulfilling life.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strengths as a provider are my ability to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel heard and understood, and my commitment to using evidence-based approaches tailored to each individual's needs. I excel at helping clients identify their strengths, set achievable goals, and develop practical strategies for overcoming challenges. My compassionate, client-centered approach ensures that each person feels supported and empowered on their journey toward mental well-being and personal growth.
