Are you struggling with past trauma? Maybe experiencing feelings of overwhelmingness? Is work becoming unbearable? I pride myself on being an anchored support for clients through their healing journey. Whether you are dealing with adolescent issues, anxiety, depression or family trauma... I am here to support you. Read below to find out a little more about me. I am an African American, female (she/her), Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) serving the States of Florida and Georgia. I have a passion for providing the utmost quality of services to individuals and adolescents. I have about 20 years of behavioral health and mental health experience. I specialize in working with children and teens, with 15+ years working in the local school district.

Greetings! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida and the owner/CEO of Breaking BHAD Counseling, LLC. I am a US Army veteran and graduate of Webster University with a Master of Arts in Counseling (Clinical Mental Health Track). I have been practicing in various mental health settings for six years, working with diverse adult populations from a wide range of demographics. I am seriously passionate about helping people overcome challenges like addiction, anxiety, depression, adjustment to life after long periods of incarceration, and relationship issues.

My clients are survivors — individuals who have endured family conflict, sexual abuse, and childhood trauma, yet continue to choose healing every day. Each person carries a story shaped by pain, resilience, and the desire to reclaim their sense of self. I honor the strength it takes to confront the past and the courage it requires to seek support. Many of my clients have spent years in survival mode, navigating feelings of shame, guilt, confusion, and loss. Through compassionate care and a safe, nonjudgmental space, they are learning that healing is not only possible — it’s deeply deserved. The healing journey is rarely linear. It may involve moments of grief, breakthroughs of self-awareness, and the slow rebuilding of trust — in others and in oneself. My work with clients focuses on helping them process their experiences, restore a sense of safety, and rediscover their inner resilience. Every client’s story is unique, but their strength is universal. They are breaking generational cycles, finding their voice, and learning to live beyond survival. Through therapy, community, and self-compassion, they are transforming trauma into growth and silence into empowerment. I believe that every survivor holds the potential for healing and renewal.

I work with those who feel the achievements are there, yet still feels misaligned in what you do versus who you truly are.

It's time to transform your relationship with yourself - to heal those outdated identities and create a life that truly feels like yours.

As adults, we are responsible for resolving the traumas that have happened to us, to pick up the pieces and put ourselves back together, not because we are to blame for our experiences, but because we are the only ones who CAN change them. That can feel unfair, and it is, there is no doubt about that. On the flipside it can also be empowering- you are the catalyst for personal change, you can always take a turn or step in a different direction, you can always act differently, feel differently, and (with the right tools and assistance) start the healing process. I am here to help you with this noble, and sometimes difficult work.

Drawing from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I collaborate with my clients to identify and challenge negative thought patterns contributing to their symptoms. Through a combination of cognitive restructuring, emotion regulation techniques, and mindfulness practices, I help my clients develop healthier coping mechanisms and increase resilience in the face of life's challenges.
