I am deeply committed to supporting children, families, and individuals from all backgrounds. My passion for helping others is rooted in the conviction that personalized support can fortify communities and elevate awareness about mental health and trauma. I advocate, guide, empower, and mentor, fostering self-advocacy and community support.
I specialize in case management, crisis intervention, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, and psychoeducation. Through these approaches, I help individuals overcome obstacles and achieve their full potential.
Empathy is at the heart of my approach. I understand that everyone has unique experiences and challenges. I listen with compassion, creating a safe space for you to share your story and feel truly heard. By working together, we can foster a sense of connection and support, helping you navigate your journey with confidence. I'm here for you! God bless!
