Hi! I am a Clinical Psychologist. I received my bachelor's degree from Spelman College, and I received my master's and doctoral degrees from the University of Mississippi. I have been practicing for 9 years. Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns they may have. One focus area is helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. I look forward to hearing from you soon!
In our first session, I will ask a number of questions to better understand you and your challenges. From there, we will develop a treatment plan together.
Throughout my career, I've learned that there is no cookie cutter approach to therapy. Everyone is unique. As such, I tailor my approach based on what is best for each client. I also believe that therapy is collaborative. We should work together to ensure you are receiving the best treatment possible.
I work with adolescents and adults who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, a major life change, and more. I also evaluate adults and children for ADHD and bariatric surgery.
Thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are all connected. We will explore thoughts and behaviors and their relationship with emotions.
This is more of a mindfulness and values approach. We look at what you value and whether you’re working in line with those values. The further we are from our values the more negative emotions we’ll experience.
