About My Clients

My ideal clients are individuals, couples, and families navigating life's heaviest burdens. I best serve those dealing with complex trauma, severe anxiety, shattering grief, domestic abuse, or family conflict. I welcome people who feel broken by their circumstances or stuck in painful cycles. Whether you are a parent fighting for your family, a survivor trying to find safety, or someone walking through deep loss, I see you. You don't have to carry this alone.

My Background and Approach

I hold a Master’s in Counseling specializing in Marriage and Family, alongside degrees in English and Social Science, and advanced doctoral studies. But my greatest qualification is my lived experience.I have survived childhood trauma, foster care, domestic violence, and the devastating loss of my oldest son and brother. By the grace of God, Jesus saved my life and turned my pain into purpose. I went on to raise five grown children and earn three degrees.I bring this rare combination of high-level clinical training and deep, personal resilience into our sessions. I do not just sit across from you as an academic expert; I sit across from you as someone who truly understands deep pain and knows the way out.Using Narrative Therapy, Couples Counseling, and trauma-informed care, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space tailored to your unique journey. I am living proof that healing is possible, and I am here to help you author your next chapter.
