Hello, I’m Star. I am a Licensed Mental Health and Addictions Counselor and am currently returning to school to pursue a Master’s Degree in Exercise and Nutrition Sciences, with the goal of holistically integrating mental and physical well-being. I graduated from the University of Colorado in 2016 with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health.

I began my counseling career working and volunteering in drug rehabilitation centers and community mental health centers and later gained experience within the criminal justice system through work in county jails and the Colorado state prison system, where I have been practicing since 2016.

My primary interests include working with trauma, substance use disorders, and general mental health and wellness, with an emphasis on movement and proper nutrition due to their impact on how we think and feel. I prefer a holistic approach, focusing on finding what works best for each individual client. I am trained in diversity and inclusion and utilize a person-centered approach in my professional practice.

My motto is, “You can’t pour from an empty cup,” and my goal is to help clients fill their cups so they can be more present for themselves and their loved ones.

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who shows up with warmth, curiosity, and zero judgment. Think of me as the therapist who feels human, someone who listens deeply, honors your story, and helps you make sense of patterns that no longer serve you. As a Caribbean-American woman, I also understand the unspoken cultural layers that often shape how we cope, communicate, and carry our experiences. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, safe, and empowered to grow at your own pace.
