As a Black man born and raised in Washington, D.C, I am aware of the biological, environmental, and socioeconomic factors that impact an individual's ability to navigate through this thing called life. My education and experience as a clinical social worker has prepared me to support you by providing insight to shift the unhealthy patterns of thinking that are often unconsciously present.
I believe the ultimate goal in life is finding the tools needed to obtain and sustain peace/happiness. The world can be full of chaos, judgement, perceptions, and subjectivity and with that, it creates emotional stress, anxiety, lack of motivation, unhealthy behavioral patterns, and negative thought processes. As a clinician, I want to create a safe space for you to self discover, grow, and learn to become the best version of yourself.
In my engagement, you can expect someone to listen without judgement. I acknowledge that you are the expert of your life. I will provide empathic support, validation of your own feelings/emotions while encouraging you to navigate through your own process. I will help you by challenging the way you think and process information to create better behavioral patterns while pushing you to be your best self. YOU ARE ENOUGH!
