About
As a person from multiple marginalized communities, my work is grounded in both clinical expertise and lived experience, which helps clients feel respected, understood, and supported.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 20 years of experience providing culturally responsive, evidence-based mental health care. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, and emotional challenges. My approach is practical and collaborative, and I value working with individuals who are engaged, consistent, and motivated in their therapeutic process.
I earned my master’s degree in counseling from the University of Memphis. My work integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, and strength-based approaches. I focus on skill-building strategies while also exploring patterns and experiences that influence current thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.
Therapy is a space for growth, clarity, and meaningful change. If you are seeking practical tools, steady support, and a counselor who will walk alongside you, I am here to help. Together, we can work toward building the change you have been hoping for, one step at a time.
