Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Linwood, NJ covered by Cigna

I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults, managing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, psychosis, ADHD, OCD, and substance use.

The essential element of any relationship is trust. I believe positive outcomes result from building an authentic connection between the therapist and the client. Although I have a diverse background, education, and experience, compassion and trust are the most influential components for addressing life's challenges in therapy.

I'm a Georgia Peach with a New Jersey Swag. I am from Newark, New Jersey but I lived in Georgia for about 15yrs. I have that southern touch along with that New Jersey toughness. I love helping people obtain their goals in life. I have been in the field of counseling for over20yrs. I know counseling works because I've personally tried it. Counseling is my 2nd career in life and my combination of education and life experiences tends to be a great match for helping others.

As a single mom of color, I have witnessed the extreme societal pressure placed on mothers to choose between their career or their children; leaving little room to even provide attention to their own self care. This ignited a passion within me to use my skills to support women to navigate through the chaos. My goal is to work with those women who may need help coping through these very real everyday stressors. Not a mom? That's ok! I can also empathize with the pressure placed on women of color in the workplace to work so much harder than their male counterparts. Its my hope to create a safe space for you to explore these feelings.

It can be challenging at times for women to have access to a therapist who can empathize with their experiences. Through a strengths based approach, I would love to share my personal experience with being a woman of color, a mom, a Christian, as well as a goal oriented professional in non-profit leadership and mental health.

Through this journey, I want you to find a sense of fulfillment, purpose, and self worth and I would be honored to take that walk with you. Our sessions will not be for me to "social work" you, but for you to unload some of the pressure and burden to make the ride a bit easier. No matter what it feels like, you got this... you can do this!

Welcome! As a therapist, my mission is to cultivate a place for you to share your story and rediscover your strengths. I integrate my education, training, and lived experience to create an informed, compassionate practice built on mutual trust and safety. Contact me and we can begin to write your next chapters, together.

I’m a licensed therapist who works with individuals navigating life transitions, relationships, and the emotional complexity of modern, busy lives. I have advanced training in perinatal mental health and specialize in supporting clients through pregnancy, postpartum, and family related transitions. I also have training in energy psychology, which I integrate into my work in a grounded and practical way. I focus on tools that support real life application and sustainable growth.

Hello! I look forward to meeting you!

I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor for 16 years. I absolutely value the human experience and am honored to be on this journey with you. I work with children and adults, particularly experienced with anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, trauma, bipolar disorder, and ADHD, and Autism.

You hold the world together for everyone else. But balancing the complex demands of caretaking, family crises, or supporting a child's disability means your own needs have likely taken a backseat.

My goal is to give you that space back. I bring a grounded, warm presence (and a little humor) to the therapeutic process. Together, we can actively untangle the overwhelm or create a quiet space for profound realizations. Let's talk about how to get you feeling grounded again.
