As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 16 years of experience in the behavioral health field, I am deeply committed to supporting individuals, families, and communities in achieving emotional wellness and meaningful change. My clinical experience includes working with children, adolescents, adults, and families, as well as navigating complex systems of care. This broad foundation allows me to bring a thoughtful, collaborative, and systems-informed perspective to every therapeutic relationship. I believe effective therapy begins with creating a safe, supportive environment where individuals feel seen, heard, and empowered.
As a proud HBCU graduate, I recognize the importance of identity, culture, and lived experience in shaping how we understand ourselves and the world around us. I integrate culturally responsive and ethically grounded practices into my work, ensuring that therapy honors each client’s unique background, values, and personal journey.
I specialize in LGBTQIA+ affirming and gender-affirming care, and I intentionally incorporate this perspective into therapy, supervision, and consultation. My goal is to foster spaces where clients can explore their identities, heal from life’s challenges, and build authentic, fulfilling lives.
