am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a proud graduate of Howard University, where I received a strong foundation in culturally competent, evidence-based social work practice. With over 15 years of professional experience in the mental health field, I am deeply committed to providing high-quality, compassionate, and client-centered therapy services to adults who are navigating the complex challenges of life. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals from diverse backgrounds who are experiencing a wide range of emotional, psychological, and behavioral issues. My approach is rooted in empathy, respect, and collaboration. I believe that healing is a personal journey, and I tailor each intervention to meet the unique needs, strengths, and goals of the individuals I serve. Drawing from a variety of therapeutic modalities—including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based practices, strengths-based approaches, and trauma-informed care—I help clients reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress. My ultimate goal is to support individuals in achieving emotional well-being, building resilience, and improving their overall quality of life. I am passionate about empowering people to reclaim their narratives and thrive, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside them on their path to healing and personal growth.

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor who works with women, adolescents, and young adults navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, life transitions, and the emotional challenges that come with trying to hold everything together. Many of my clients are the people others rely on. They're hardworking, responsible, and often look like they're doing just fine from the outside. Internally, though, they may be struggling with overthinking, self-doubt, people-pleasing, relationship challenges, or the weight of past experiences that still show up in their everyday lives. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe healing happens when you feel both supported and challenged. Together, we'll work to understand the patterns that keep showing up, build tools that actually fit your life, and help you move toward the version of yourself you want to become. For those who desire it, I also offer Christian counseling and faith-based integration as part of the therapeutic process.

Hello and welcome! I am a Licensed Individual Clinical Social Worker in DC (LICSW); and also a Clinical Social Worker in MD (LCSW-C). I received my Master's degree in Counseling Psychology in 1985 and my Master's degree in Social Work in 1999. I earned my LICSW in DC in 2002. In December 2025, I earned my Clinical license in Maryland (LCSW-C). I like talking with people--but more importantly, listening to people. To me, therapy is a block of time. It is an opportunity for people to talk to someone who is not a parent, brother, sister, spouse or even best friend. My goal is to listen to you and to help you consider options in your life.

Hi! I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker based in the DMV area ( Washington, DC, Maryland, VA) and Florida with over 11 years of experience helping kids, teens, young adults, and families. I provide telehealth only in the DMV -- I see ages 12 and up for telehealth and (both telehealth and in person) services in Florida (ages as young as 6 for in person). I love working with people who are figuring out school, friendships, family, big emotions, and all the tricky parts of growing up. I’m here to listen to what you’re going through and support you as you build confidence, learn coping skills, and take small steps toward feeling better. Together, we’ll figure out what works for YOU — in a calm, caring, and judgment-free space.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
