Greetings, I am a licensed therapist based in Georgia, holding a Master's degree from Capella University and an Ed.S. from Valdosta University. With six years of experience as a nationally certified counselor, I specialize in supporting young adults facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, grief, and various life issues. My primary focus is on empowering and assisting African American women in their journey towards mental well-being.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, my career journey embodies a commitment to fostering emotional well-being and academic success. With a foundation rooted in compassion and expertise, I've dedicated myself to diverse roles, ensuring holistic support for individuals at various stages of life. My tenure as a School Counselor was marked by the implementation of comprehensive counseling programs aimed at guiding students through personal, academic, and career development. Conducting individual and group sessions, I facilitated preventive interventions, orchestrated seamless grade transitions, and collaborated with educators and parents to address diverse student needs. Transitioning to therapeutic roles, I served as a Program Therapist at Ridgeview Institute, facilitating emotional health and crisis intervention for patients and families. At Latoria Group, Inc., my focus expanded to psychotherapy, empowering clients to navigate traumas, manage stress, and develop healthier coping mechanisms. My impact extended within the educational sphere as a Special Education Teacher, where I meticulously crafted and monitored Individualized Educational Plans (IEPs) to uplift student achievement. During my tenure as a Student Support Specialist, I integrated preventive programs and community collaborations to address behavioral concerns, fostered academic growth, and facilitated targeted interventions for at-risk students. Beyond academia, my career encompasses roles as a Case Manager and Truancy Officer, where I provided intensive support, conducted assessments, and collaborated with agencies to ensure holistic development and support for individuals facing diverse challenges.
