About My Clients
Are you or your teenager/young adult dealing with anger, depression, anxiety or other issues? As a dedicated and invested therapist, I will work with you to discover effective coping skills to manage the issues life is tossing at you to doubt yourself.
My Background and Approach
I have worked in an inpatient mental health facility completing psycho-social assessments, groups and structure for managing outpatient in the community. I have worked as a Rape Crisis Counselor for more than 10 yrs. I have worked and advocated for victims of domestic violence. I acted as a mentor for teen mothers and at-risk youth. I am an experienced HIV/AIDS and STI Counselor and educator. I am experienced at assisting families in crisis. I was a Crisis Pregnancy Counselor and taught parenting classes.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe everyone should live a life of hope, happiness and inclusiveness. Everyone should have access to resources to assist with effecting coping skills to manage when life takes us on an unwanted journey. I believe there should be no shaming in mental illness. I believe self esteem is about how you feel about you and no one should give that power to others. I believe in self care concerts, mani-pedi's, good books and retail therapy. I believe love starts with self. Choosing me as a therapist is choosing support, encouragement and acceptance. I personally worked hard to not be the statistic the world thought I should be and as hard as I worked for myself, you will get that same level of commitment.
