As a Black woman Clinician in Texas, Colorado & Michigan, I am here to help you reach your goals as an individual or as a parent needing support. I also have a Psychologist in my office who provides diagnostic testing for autism (ADOS-2), ADHD and psychological evaluations, a Psychiatrist for psychiatric evaluations and medication management & two LPCs/MSWs for mental health counseling. I also can offer Speech & Language Pathology (SLP) and Occupational Therapy (OT) services through a telehealth (Michigan only).
My practice provides behavioral health support and management, psychiatry, psychology, mental health counseling (CBT/DBT and ACT), psychological & cognitive evaluations, dementia care behavioral support, anger management counseling & travel support for families and individuals who have sensory needs, autism and/or ADHD during travel and on vacations.
Our clinicians at Cygnus will see individuals from 2 years old through elderly populations. Mental health care should always be available throughout a person's lifetime.
