Get To Know Me
What is your style/approach to therapy?
I run a small private practice so I can truly get to know each client and offer highly personalized care. There’s no one-size-fits-all in therapy—each person deserves an approach that fits their unique needs. My style is collaborative: together we’ll build trust, set meaningful goals, and work through the challenges you’re facing. Whether you’re coping with difficult emotions, navigating stress, or healing from the past, I’ll help you develop insight and skills to take charge of your mental health and create the life you want to live.
If there was one thing you wish people knew about the therapy experience who might be hesitant to try it, what would that be?
If there’s one thing I wish people knew about therapy, it’s that you don’t have to already have it figured out before you start. A lot of people worry they’ll be judged, or that therapy means something is “wrong” with them. In reality, therapy is simply a space where you don’t have to carry everything alone. You can show up exactly as you are—unsure, overwhelmed, or even skeptical—and we’ll figure it out together at your pace.

Education
Savannah State Univerity, Master of Social Work, Clinical Social Work, 2008
Work HistoryOver the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with people across many stages of life—from children and teens navigating complicated emotions, to adults managing stress, loss, or trauma, to older adults adjusting to major life changes. My background includes time spent in hospitals, nursing homes, community mental health, and now private practice, which has given me a wide perspective on the challenges people face. I’ve trained extensively in approaches like CBT and DBT, and I’ve also worked closely with trauma, anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, and identity concerns. These experiences shaped my specialty in helping people not only manage symptoms, but also build skills for lasting change and emotional balance.
