About My Clients

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re taking this important step toward prioritizing your mental health. Life can bring unexpected challenges, and at times, it may feel overwhelming or isolating. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, or burnout, please know that you are not alone. With the right tools and support, you can navigate these challenges and discover effective solutions that empower you to move forward.

My Background and Approach

I earned my bachelor’s degree in social work from North Carolina Central University and my master’s degree in social work from East Carolina University. I’ve worked in various mental health settings. My clinical experience includes: • Individual Therapy, Group Therapy & Family Therapy • Case Management & Discharge Planning • In-Home Therapy & Crisis Intervention I’ve supported children and adolescents with behavioral challenges, ADHD, anxiety, and depression, and helped parents strengthen their parenting skills.
