Great to meet you!

I strive to provide an affirming, non-judgmental and empathic environment for all, especially those in the LGBTQIA+ community, people of color, and women. I received my BA from Louisiana State University and my Master’s in Social Work from Southern University at New Orleans..

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is individualized, with consideration of the uniqueness of each client's preferences and needs. I utilize trauma informed care with traditional therapeutic methods. I am also trained in EMDR.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we will complete a comprehensive assessment to better understand your history, current concerns, and what’s bringing you in at this time. From there, we will work together to identify initial goals. My aim is to create an environment that feels safe, grounded, and focused on real meaningful growth.
