I am a compassionate and culturally sensitive therapist with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s emotional, relational, and personal challenges. As a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Supervision (LISW-S) and Licensed Independent Chemical Dependency Counselor (LICDC), I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel heard, respected, and empowered.
My approach combines evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS) with genuine empathy, practical support, and a deep understanding of resilience and healing.
I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and substance use concerns. I also value the importance of cultural identity, faith, and lived experiences in the healing process and offer Christian counseling for clients who wish to incorporate spirituality into therapy.
My goal is to help clients develop healthier coping strategies, improve emotional well-being, strengthen relationships, and move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.
