This journey of life can take us through many trials and triumphs. At times we need a reminder of the tools we possess within to help manage life transitions. My focus I strive to create a culturally responsive therapy environment in which clients can feel safe to engage in the therapeutic process. My approach My therapeutic approach is guided by a multicultural framework that utilizes psychodynamic, relational-cultural, and cognitive behavioral techniques. My communication style I am an active and empathic listener. I've been told that I am a calming communicator that makes it easier for others to be transparent and honest about their experience. My journey to mental healthcare I have over 15 years of experience providing mental health services and I am not only a practitioner but also an educator. I work as an adjunct professor teaching courses that center on African American psychology, Grief, and Multicultural Counseling. My goals for you You are the expert of your experience. I hope to facilitate your ability to perceive and feel to enhance your overall human experience. My role is to follow and highlight areas where reported change can take place.
