About me
I'm a licensed therapist practicing in Ohio and South Carolina with extensive experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. My work centers on helping clients navigate depression, addiction, relationship difficulties, and trauma—while building stronger self-esteem and a deeper sense of self-love.
I specialize in working with women, young adults, and individuals facing multicultural concerns. I'm particularly skilled at addressing social anxiety, communication challenges, posttraumatic stress, caregiver burnout, mood disorders, and issues around abandonment and forgiveness. I also support clients through pregnancy, childbirth, and the transitions that come with parenthood.
My approach is grounded in cultural responsiveness and a genuine commitment to honoring each client's unique identity and lived experience. I believe that healing happens in a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and respected. Whether you're working through past trauma, navigating relationship patterns, or discovering your life's purpose, I'm here to walk alongside you with compassion and skill.
Taking that first step toward therapy takes courage, and I'm honored to support you on your journey.
