I am a licensed clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and I have 22 years of experience working with adults, families, children, women, substance abusers, and offenders in the community.
I created Divine Grace Counseling to help individuals who need healing from the emotional pain of their past. Unresolved emotional pain is one of the leading causes of life dissatisfaction and can cause impaired judgement, health issues, dysfunctional relationships, health problems, and career stagnation. The purpose of my practice is to help my clients take the first step to healing emotional pain, by learning how to offer "Divine Grace" to themselves and to others. During our time in therapy, we will develop a healing plan to transform your breakdown into a breakthrough.

As a woman in her 20s, I understand the struggles of integrating traditional values in a modern world.
Life is noisy. Everyone has opinions on how you should live your life. There are so many expectations of you. Parents should do this. Your job and spouse have conditions for you. Children should treat their family a way. You are not meeting many of these expectations. You feel ashamed, angry and afraid. This is not how you want to spend your life. You would prefer to feel peace, confidence, acceptance and joy. If only you could have someone to listen to what YOU want and not try to force their views onto you. I can provide you the quiet that you need to gather your thoughts.

Have you found yourself repeating the same ineffective behavior while desiring a difference. I help you confirm your identity and develop autonomy within the premises of the familial, business, and intimate relationship that you are involved in.

Individual/group counseling for outpatient/inpatient/jail with men & women that struggle with severe mental health illnesses, eating disorders, and substance abuse.
You are NOT alone. We are all all survivors constantly adapting to overcome whatever obstacles we face. It can get confusing, knowing which way to go, so we use unhealthy ways to escape at times. This is where I hope to be of some help. The last 7 years have been filled with meeting those hurt, fearful, & imprisoned during some of their darkest times. It is the most fulfilling thing to see someone see themselves in a new light... to be free of the past with motivation for the future. My aim is to help my clients identify the path they are on, where they want to be, and us build the skills needed to reach their goals.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
