If you're tired of surface-level support, you're in the right place. My name is Vernice, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) serving Arizona, Texas, Minnesota, and Washington through secure telehealth. I work with teens, young adults, and adults who are ready to face life’s real challenges head-on. Whether it’s navigating anxiety, depression, identity, relationship concerns, addiction, or just the chaos of being human—I’m here for it.
My space is judgment-free, affirming, and unapologetically supportive; I work with everyone. Each person deserves to be seen, heard, and helped without needing to explain why they matter.
I guide clients in turning pain into power and vision into reality through customized therapy built for your evolution. Every session is a deep dive—real talk, reflection, and breakthrough—where your truth leads the way.
No fluff, no judgment—just real healing and transformation. It’s time to take control of your story. Breaking Waves Counseling starts your comeback.
