About me

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Georgia. I received my master's degree from the University of Southern California and have been practicing for 4 years. I help young and older adults struggling with mood disorders, trauma and life changes become the best versions of themselves. I believe that a secure therapeutic relation between client and clinician establishes the foundation for growth, transformation and healing. I am honored to share this journey with you!

Get to know me

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

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Having worked with a diverse population for the past 4 years, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My clients are motivated for change, but don't yet have the tools needed to make their goal a reality. They often feel anxious/afraid but ready to make the changes needed to live their best lives.

My treatment methods

Psychodynamic

A psychodynamic approach empowers my clients to become self-aware and understand the influence of the past on the present.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

A CBT approach to therapy helps my clients identify, question, and change negative thought patterns that hinder a healthy state of mind.

Humanistic

I use Humanictic therapy to promote unconditional positive regard for the client, which subsequently foster self-worth, personal growth and self-awareness.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

I incorporate Mindfulness- Based Therapy practices that include present moment awareness, mindful movement, meditation and breathing exercises. These practices teach the client to be in the here and now as well as break away from negative thought patterns.

I have enjoyed my sessions with Ms. Azan, she is very easy to talk with. She seems to be a good listener . I was looking for a African American female that is of the Christian faith.
