Great to meet you!

“Don’t be afraid; Be focused, Be determined, Be hopeful, Be empowered “ Michelle Obama. You are not here by chance. Welcome to my page! My name is Chyna (yes, like the country). I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, licensed in the District of Columbia, with over 25 years experience in the area of mental health/clinical counseling; family and victim advocacy and military health. I am passionate about helping the WHOLE person on their path to healing.

I completed my undergraduate studies at Hampton University, Hampton VA. I received my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Maryland at Baltimore, where my concentration was on Clinical/Families & Children.

My approach to therapy

I have extensive training and experience in providing Trauma Informed Care. I utilize various treatment methods, including CBT, Solution Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Interpersonal Therapy. My hope is to help others use the practical tools used in my practice to identify and resolve the root issues that have kept many of us from living in our truth and the life we DESIRE!
