Your experiences and mine have brought us to a time such as this. Chances are, you could use some support at this time in your life. Often times, driven and highly motivated Black professionals experience anxiety and high levels of stress that can present as feeling anxious, over-tired, nervous, difficulty concentrating, as well as other commonly overlooked symptoms. The demands of your career and personal life can create fatigue, whether physical and/or emotional. As a successful Black professional, I understand the challenges that come with being the one who is typically leading and helping others. I am passionate about working with Black professional women to identify and define their strengths and goals, as well as to “redefyne” the narrative of strength. There is strength in intentional vulnerability, so let’s defy the belief that strength is not found in openness, and improve your quality of life through self-care and stress management! Now offering self-care groups for clients and other providers! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and have been a mental health clinician for 9 years, and a helping professional for over 14 years. I obtained my Bachelor’s degrees in Social Work & Psychology in 2006 from North Carolina Central University and went on to obtain my Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work in 2009 from the University of Pennsylvania. My background includes Counseling/Clinical Social Work domestically and internationally (United Kingdom), Management, Traditional Outpatient Therapy, Program Coordination, Behavior Specialist Consultation, and work with the Military population. My goal is to use my skills, training, and experience to provide a safe space for you to be heard and receive support during your stressful times. With me, you don’t need to have it all together, you only need to give me the opportunity to support you. My therapy approach is integrative, combining cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, brief solution focused therapy and other therapeutic techniques tailored to your needs. With an emphasis on providing a unique experience of a space that will be yours and prioritize you, I look forward to meeting you!
