Bio
   I’m a licensed clinical social worker with almost two decades of helping individuals navigate life’s challenges, strengthen their relationships, and prioritize their well-being. I believe healing happens when people feel seen, heard, and supported in bringing their most authentic selves into the room. My approach is rooted in compassion, curiosity, and creating a space where growth, self-discovery, and well-being can flourish.
   Outside of work, I enjoy live music, great ramen, meaningful time with loved ones, and binge-watching crime dramas and true crime documentaries. I also enjoy Pilates, yoga, and strength training to stay grounded and energized. While I love connecting with others, I recharge best with quiet time alone.
   A core part of my professional and personal values is a commitment to wellness, particularly for Black women. I am proud to support and work alongside BlackGirl WELLbeing, an organization dedicated to creating spaces and experiences for Black women to reclaim their wellness. This mission deeply resonates with my belief that wellness is not a luxury, but a vital part of living a healthy, empowered, and fulfilling life.
   Whether you're seeking support through a challenging season, pursuing personal growth, or working to create a more balanced and meaningful life, I am honored to be a part of your journey.
