About
I understand the unique challenges of navigating life as a minority, and I bring both personal experience and professional support to create a safe, affirming space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered.
I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 4 years of experience helping children, teens, adults, and families find healthy ways to cope, communicate, and thrive. I work with those navigating stress, anxiety, family transitions, cultural identity concerns, adjustment, depression, or relationship struggles. Many of my clients seek to manage overwhelming emotions, heal from past experiences, and build confidence. As a Christian and a minority, I bring a perspective grounded in faith, resilience, and cultural understanding, creating an affirming space for clients who value the integration of their beliefs in the healing process.
I earned my Master of Social Work from Widener University. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each client’s needs. I draw from evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and strength-based practices, while incorporating creative tools like play therapy and expressive activities.
I know that seeking support takes courage, and you don’t have to walk this path on your own. As a Christian, I believe in the power of hope, healing, and renewal, and I strive to create a space where faith and therapy can work hand in hand. If you’re ready to take the next step, it would be my honor to walk with you on this journey.

The number of life coaching sessions someone attends can differ based on the coach and the client’s choices. How many sessions are needed and how often they occur often hinges on the client’s objectives and the complexity of their concerns.
