My Education & Experience

My journey in mental health therapy began at Norfolk State University (NSU), where I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) degree. NSU provided me with a robust foundation in social work principles, ethics, and practices. The comprehensive training I received at NSU emphasized cultural competence, empathy, and a client-centered approach—values that continue to guide my practice today.

After graduating from NSU, I pursued and achieved licensure as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). This process involved gaining supervised clinical experience and passing a rigorous examination, underscoring my competence and commitment to the field. Achieving my LCSW was a significant milestone, marking my readiness to provide high-quality, independent mental health services to my clients.

Throughout my career, I have gained extensive clinical experience working with a diverse range of clients. I specialize in helping individuals navigate trauma and significant life transitions, including motherhood, divorce, transitioning to college, and adolescence. My work with these populations has deepened my understanding of their unique challenges and enhanced my ability to provide empathetic and effective support.

My therapeutic approach is fundamentally person-centered. I believe that every client is the expert of their own life, and my role is to provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where they can explore their thoughts and feelings. Building a strong therapeutic alliance is essential, and I strive to empower my clients to take an active role in their healing and growth.

The field of mental health is always evolving, and I am committed to staying current with the latest research and techniques. I regularly participate in continuing education and professional development opportunities to ensure that I provide the best possible care to my clients.
