About My Clients

Are you afraid of what's to come, sad for extended periods of time, having trouble sitting still, feeling hopeless, experiencing flashbacks, having trouble concentrating, struggling to find/maintain a healthy relationship, having trouble falling/staying asleep, or lacking effective communication skills? These areas can be difficult to manage alone, and I look forward to empowering you with tools to take control of your mental health, life, and relationships.

My Background and Approach

I have been utilizing trauma-informed care and cognitive-behavioral therapy to continue to destigmatize seeking mental health care in our communities. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Social Science and a Master of Arts degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am a licensed mental health counselor in Florida, who is of Jamaican descent. I work with children, adolescents, couples, families, adults, and seniors from clients with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, major depressive disorder, or generalized anxiety disorder to name a few. I am authentic, empowering, affirming, solution-focused, and open-minded. My goal is to empower you with the tools you'll need to face life's daily struggles and to assist you with managing stress, anxiousness, sadness, grief, and your ability to adapt to changes.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My greatest desire is to guide individuals to the best version of themselves. Everyone has a fresh start within their reach, and I help individuals find hope as they work towards their healing journey. Healing is not linear, yet it is possible for everyone. As a child, I suffered from severe depression and anxiety. Through my own therapy, I learned how to incorporate a healthy routine, social and familial support, and prayer and meditation, which helped me to gain control of my life. I haven't struggled with depression or anxiety in years, and I want you to experience the same freedom that I experience each day. I am accepting of all individuals from all backgrounds. FSU has the best football team in the state of Florida. I am an advocate for the mental health community through the American Counseling Association, blogging, and creatively through artwork.
