Great to meet you!

I'm a proficient, professional, and personable LCSW. After completing training for 4 years at Delaware State University, DE, I began practicing psychotherapy. In addition to caring for patients in tele-health services,I have experience practicing in private practice, social service agencies, and assisted living facilities. My strengths are in CBT, along with many years of treating trauma, anxiety and depression. Outside of behavioral health care, I enjoy traveling and watching sports.

My approach to therapy

I utilized both an Integrative Therapy approach with my clients, based on what is best for my client's to meet their individual needs and well as CBT/Cognitive Behavior Therapy. I am certified in CBT and Trauma Focused- CBT.

What you can expect from me

Improved overall sense of well-being, elimination of troubled symptoms, and less difficulty talking about and dealing with emotions.
