My goal as a therapist is to inspire hope and change by providing a safe, supportive and nonjudgmental environment to build a therapeutic relationship that allows for courageous “self-study”. With understanding self comes clarity, and relief, which in turn creates the opportunity to cultivate new healthy ways to think, feel, and react. By working collaboratively, you will uncover, understand, and overcome challenges including loneliness, guilt, shame, fear, grief, and self-doubt.
Sometimes these trials result in mood instability, procrastination, depression, anxiety, trauma, aging struggles, anger, impulsivity, eating concerns, interpersonal difficulties, or use/misuse of substances. My approach to counseling is holistic, compassionate, eclectic, and collaborative. I meet you where you are and adapt my approach to fit your needs.
I am trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). I utilize a variety of modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Problem Solving Skills, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Anger Management, Relationship Skills, Crisis Management, and Supportive Counseling to inspire self-growth in all my clients.
My goal as a therapist is to provide high quality therapeutic services that are accessible to everyone. I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Howard University in Washington, DC and my Master of Social Work from University of Maryland School of Social Work in Baltimore, MD.
I specialize in the treatment of various mental health diagnoses, including but not limited to, ADHD, PTSD, complex PTSD, bipolar disorder, anxiety, and depression. I utilize therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and more. I specialize in providing individual therapy to adults and adolescents. I also provide therapy for couples. I like to take a collaborative approach, empowering my clients to guide their own journey.
