Managed by Thriveworks. Your call or email may go to a representative.
I earned my Master’s degree in Community Mental Health Counseling at Malone University in 2008. While in school, I led and developed the program, “How to Counsel the Black Family.” I also trained for seven years to work with individuals charged with DUI in Ohio. I moved to Atlanta, Georgia, in 2010 and worked with various core agencies and private businesses throughout Georgia. In 2012, I received certification in Rational Living Therapy and became a state-certified professional counselor supervisor.
I served as President of the Licensed Professional Counseling Association of Georgia from 2016 through 2018. My transition from non-profit management and the political arena to counseling was driven by my passion for developing mental toughness and helping others reach their full potential.
With over ten years of experience in the sports-related industry, I combine both areas to serve student-athletes, families, and adults. I am an interactive, solution-focused therapist, integrating complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client.
