I am a masters level Licensed Professional Counselor from Thomas Jefferson University East Falls, with a trauma-informed focus to applying evidence based interventions. As a Philadelphia native and person of color, I am driven by a desire to provide healthy representation of breaking generational trauma I longed to see available for myself and loved ones during various trials in our lives. With my 9 years of post graduate experience I aim to get rid of stigmas about seeking professional help.

I take a strength based and person-centered approach to supporting individuals and their loved ones with meeting their therapy goals. Essentially this means I take time to understand each person as the expert in their own life and help them to recognize the skills they already have, how they present unique to their circumstances and ways to improve upon the skills to create a sense of wellbeing in every important area of their daily life.

People that work with me can expect to leave sessions feeling genuinely seen, without judgement and knowing they are appreciated for showing up to heal themselves to the best of their abilities. I will do my best to ensure people can take a wealth of knowledge and adaptable healthy skill sets with them. I also hope each person is able to leave with a clearer sense of worth, identity and empowerment, needed to set realistic and sustainable ways of thriving in life outside of therapy.
