Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process. Reba was born in Grenada, West Indies and migrated to New York City with her family. She received her Bachelor’s Degree from the University of Rochester with a major in Political Science. Reba went on to earn her Master’s in Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University, followed by her LCSW.
Reba has worked in a variety of clinical settings such as group homes, residential treatment facilities, crisis centers, detention centers, a juvenile drug court, and outpatient practice. Her clinical experiences include working with children, adolescents, and adults from a variety of ethnic, racial, socioeconomic status, gender, sexual orientation exceptionalities, religious, geographical areas, and academic/professional background. Reba has worked with an array of mental illnesses, but she acknowledges that she has a passion for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
She creates an open and safe environment where true thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Reba considers herself to be a serious-minded person who believes in strong work-ethics and is detailed-oriented. She also considers herself to be a social, fun, and open-minded person.

What should a new client know about working with you?
I will provide you a safe and understanding space to explore your emotions, thoughts, needs, and build resilience. We will work collaboratively to gain insight, explore and improve your dimensions of wellness, and develop healthy strategies to achieve your goals.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Individuals come to therapy for different reasons. Some come to manage a specific concern or stressor, and others need a reflective space for clarity and exploration. This is your journey. I will start by getting to know you by understanding and respecting your history, experiences, values, strengths, and current needs. As we continue sessions, I will help you identify themes and patterns. We will work together to challenge the maladaptive ones and promote the healthy ones. The pace can be adjusted as you need.
