Great to meet you!

I earned my BA in Psychology from Spelman College, MS in Clinical/Counseling Psychology from Valdosta State University, and PsyD from California Southern University. I am a licensed professional counselor licensed in Georgia, North Carolina, and Mississippi. I have worked with clients from an array of backgrounds with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, life transition issues, and military life issues.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I meet you where you are to help you get to where you want to be. Because therapy is not one size fits all, my therapeutic approach is pretty eclectic but heavily influenced by cognitive behavioral therapy because the mind is the body’s control center. I also will work with you on identifying strengths to help resolve life’s speed bumps and I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

What you can expect from our first session

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I strive for therapy to be open, honest, genuine, compassionate, and most of all beneficial to you. I am here to help, not to judge. We all need help at some point in life and I look forward to helping you navigate through life's sometimes turbulent waters. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
