I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with more than 20 years of experience in the behavioral health field. I earned my undergraduate degree in psychology from Fisk University, an HBCU. My Master's degree is from Argosy University in Atlanta. Throughout my career, my primary goal has always been to collaborate with clients and assist them in navigating through challenging times. Externally, everything may appear to be going well, but internally, challenges persist, making life difficult. Striving for perfection, grappling with past worries, and facing uncertainty about the future can impact various aspects of your life, including relationships with family and friends, hindering you from living authentically. Even if your professional life is thriving, interpersonal connections may be strained. My aim is to create a supportive space for you to heal from challenging experiences, ease your mind from persistent worries, and foster a sense of hope amid sadness. Whether difficulties stem from past events or unexpected circumstances, I am here to assist. With extensive experience helping individuals and families navigate tough times, discover their true selves, and regain a sense of normalcy, I am dedicated to guiding you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery.

I had my first appointment with Mahogany on 5/3/2026! I haven't been in therapy since 12/2023. Mahogany was a breath of fresh air, she welcomed me and made me feel right at home. I look forward to working with her.

During my first conversation with Mahogany, we talked through everything that has been on my mind lately. She helped me set practical goals to work on before our next session and ended by encouraging me to take charge of my life and truly take care of myself. I already feel better knowing I've found her and I am looking forward to this journey of prioritizing my well-being.

This was my first session with Mahogany and she was truly amazing. She was honest, informative, and transparent, and even though we couldn’t move forward, she still guided me in the right direction and helped me communicate my needs with my current therapist. I really appreciated her support.
