Confronting roadblocks, discarding emotional baggage and often years of hurt, pain, guilt and shame are things I strive to help my clients address. As a graduate of Howard University with an M.A. in Professional Counseling from Argosy University/Washington, D.C., additional post graduate work and over 20 years of counseling experience, I work as both a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor and Clinical Site Supervisor. I strive to help people aged 21 years old and up rediscover their purpose, increase self-awareness that promotes positive change, challenge distorted thoughts and empower themselves to be the best version of themselves.
