I have been licensed to practice psychology since 2005 and bring over 25 years of professional experience working with clients from diverse backgrounds facing a wide range of concerns.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am a graduate of Michigan State University with a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology. I have been licensed to practice psychology since 2005. I have over 25 years of professional experience as it relates to working with clients from diverse backgrounds with a multitude of concerns. Although this is not an all-inclusive list, I enjoy working with clients who have a desire to address the following: relationship issues; family conflict/dynamics; feelings of guilt; work-related stress due to discrimination, racism, or sexual harassment; poor decision-making; anger management issues; career indecision/stagnation, couples-marital conflict; multicultural concerns; stress related to debt; identity issues related to race and situational depression. Understanding that one treatment modality or therapy approach does not fit all, my approach to counseling is foundationally based on meeting clients where they currently are and building bridges from there. I believe the quintessential ingredient in producing optimal behavioral outcomes is to understand associated emotions and thinking. One way to assist, is to help clients identify how triggers, faulty thinking, negative peer influences and other external sources can contribute to substandard outcomes.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My typical process is to, first and foremost, meet clients where they currently are; Collect as much background/historical information as possible; Understand what has and has not worked in the past as it relates to helping clients achieve their ultimate goals; and assist clients in the development of realistic goals to resolve concerns.
