My Background and Approach
I have a background in family and individual work. I received my Bachelors in Anthropology from Michigan State University. I have a master’s degree in Social Work from GrandValley State University. My therapeutic career started out working in the homes of families with drug and/or alcohol use present in Grand Rapids, MI. The bulk of my work focused on working with women who've experienced complex, childhood trauma. I incorporate the person as a whole, meaning exploring food and environment in addition to traditional talk therapy such, as CBT, to ensure overall health is met. My services are designed to help find strength despite the challenges you've experienced. In order for me to effectively address these areas without limitations and maintain my client's privacy, I am currently an Out-of-Network provider.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe education, a sense of safety and feeling heard are human rights, that I stand by. I support organizations that fight against mental health stigma and access issues across all genders, ethnicities, and sexual orientations. I've experienced racial and systemic oppression in various forms, as a woman and as an African American on many levels. I attend events and trainings addressing social justice and cultural competence on a regular basis and challenge myself to look outside of my old belief systems, as I recognize there are privileges I've had, that others may not.
