Licensed Clinical Social Worker - Candidate in Southfield, MI

About My Clients

My ideal client is someone seeking a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and families who are navigating life's challenges, including relationship issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. My practice is particularly attuned to those experiencing trauma (e.g. religious, racial trauma, et cetera) offering a supportive environment for healing and self-discovery.

My Background and Approach

As a Limited Licensed Master Social Worker (LLMSW), I bring a wealth of experience in mental health therapy, chaplaincy, and holistic support to my practice. My background includes specialized training in trauma-informed care, with a focus on addressing religious and racial trauma. My diverse professional journey has equipped me with the skills to help clients navigate complex life challenges with empathy and understanding. My therapeutic approach is client-centered, emphasizing a nurturing and supportive environment where you can explore your feelings and experiences at your own pace. I have worked with individuals, couples, and families across various settings, including clinical environments and community organizations. This broad experience allows me to offer a nuanced and compassionate approach tailored to your unique needs. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or navigating your mental health I am here to help.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

As a therapist, community advocate, and compassionate clergy, I’m committed to nurturing the healing, dignity, and well-being of all people. That includes individuals of every race, gender identity, ability, faith tradition, and cultural background. Much of my work centers on those impacted by systemic injustice—people navigating poverty, discrimination, trauma, or displacement. Whether I’m addressing food insecurity, mental health stigma, or barriers in education and housing, I meet each person with compassion, cultural humility, and a deep belief in their resilience. I stand with movements that protect human dignity, promote safety, and expand equity. Above all, I work to create spaces where people feel seen, heard, and empowered to thrive.
