A Master's Level Psychotherapist specializing in BIPOC mental health and Student Success, who is deeply passionate about assisting individuals with obtaining their highest level of potential while navigating life's trials and tribulations. Recognizing human nature, we often become dormant by the events we've experienced from birth and forward, and most times, we will develop behaviors that hinder us from progressing. However, there is always room for improvement. Each day you are given a new chance to put your best foot forward, and I commend you for taking this small yet significant step to become a better version of yourself.
Please allow me to provide the support and tools you need to navigate this world, appreciate yourself, and find life satisfaction. You already have it in you. My practice is based on Carl Roger's Person-Centered theoretical orientation. We'll utilize relevant therapeutic interventions and activities to help ensure change and maintenance.
I want to remind you that you are much stronger than the inconveniences of life, and you don't have to go through it alone. I'm excited to help you begin this new chapter of your life.
