What do you think is the biggest barrier today for people seeking care?
One of the biggest barriers for people seeking care today is the lack of accessibility, which can manifest in several ways:
Financial Constraints: The cost of mental health services can be prohibitive, especially for those without insurance or with inadequate coverage. High copays, deductibles, and out-of-pocket expenses can deter individuals from seeking the care they need.
Stigma: Despite growing awareness, there is still significant stigma around mental health issues. Many people fear judgment or discrimination, which can prevent them from reaching out for help.
Availability of Providers: There is a shortage of mental health professionals, particularly in rural or underserved areas. This can lead to long wait times and limited options for care, making it difficult for individuals to receive timely and appropriate treatment.
Cultural and Language Barriers: For many people, cultural differences or language barriers can make it challenging to find a provider who understands their background or can communicate effectively with them. This is especially true for BIPOC communities, where there may be a lack of culturally competent care.
Lack of Awareness or Knowledge: Some individuals may not recognize the signs of mental health issues or know how to access resources. Misinformation or a lack of understanding about mental health conditions can prevent people from seeking care.
Transportation and Logistical Challenges: For some, the physical act of getting to a provider’s office can be a barrier, whether due to lack of transportation, mobility issues, or other logistical challenges.
Fear of Treatment: Concerns about the potential side effects of medication, fear of being labeled, or anxiety about the therapeutic process can also prevent people from seeking care.
These barriers highlight the need for more inclusive, affordable, and accessible mental health services, along with efforts to reduce stigma and educate the public about the importance of mental health care.

Work HistoryWhen I founded Positive Change Counseling in 2019, I was determined to create a space where individuals of all ages could receive tailored therapeutic support. My approach is rooted in providing personalized interventions, whether through individual therapy, family sessions, or crisis interventions. I work closely with children, adolescents, and adults, helping them navigate their challenges and empowering them to make positive changes in their lives.
In my role as an Early Childhood Infant Mental Health Specialist, I specialized in strengthening the bond between parents and their young children. I help parents understand the importance of early relationships and guide them in fostering secure attachments with their children, which is crucial for healthy development.
I extend my therapeutic expertise to clients of all ages, providing support in various areas, including family dynamics and crisis management. My work here involves helping clients uncover the underlying issues affecting their mental health and guiding them toward meaningful resolutions.
I have experience in leadership as a Clinical Supervisor in the Early Childhood Behavioral Health Department. I was responsible for mentoring and coaching clinical staff, ensuring they provided high-quality care to families. I developed parent-child group interventions and spearheaded initiatives to improve client engagement and staff retention. My role also involved providing reflective supervision, which helped clinicians deepen their self-awareness and effectiveness in their therapeutic relationships.
As a clinician and Infant Mental Health Specialist,, I focused on promoting healthy parent-child relationships through relationship-based treatment. I worked closely with families, conducting therapy sessions in their homes, schools, and communities to address their unique needs. I educated parents on attachment theory and introduced activities to strengthen their bonds with their children.
Earlier in my career, I served as a Substance Abuse Counselor. Here, I worked with adult males in a residential setting, helping them overcome addiction through cognitive behavioral therapy and other evidence-based practices. My role involved assessing clients' stages of change, developing treatment plans, and linking them to necessary resources, including psychiatric services and aftercare programs.
My journey in mental health began with AmeriCorps, where I worked as a Juvenile Justice Specialist. I provided court-ordered services to adjudicated youth, facilitating life skills groups that focused on anger management, social skills, and emotional coping. This experience solidified my commitment to helping vulnerable populations navigate the complexities of their lives and set them on a path to success.
Throughout my career, I’ve gained extensive experience in a variety of therapeutic modalities, including trauma-informed care, cognitive behavioral therapy, and attachment-based interventions. My work is driven by a deep passion for helping individuals and families overcome their challenges and achieve their full potential.
