Therapist

Virtual • Indiana


Grief is my specialty. I've lived it, not just studied it. I was a guardian and caregiver for my parent through Bipolar Disorder and Alzheimer's Disease, which means I understand what it's like to grieve someone who is still here, to navigate a complex medical system on someone else's behalf, and to carry your own needs while holding everyone else's.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 17 years of experience across mental health, child welfare, hospice, and hospital settings, and I hold a Doctorate in Health Sciences. I work with individuals facing grief at every stage: life cycle changes, chronic illness, and end-of-life. I'm also trained as an end-of-life doula and hold certifications in palliative and trauma-informed care.

I'm licensed in Indiana and Minnesota.

If you're carrying something that's hard to put into words — trauma, grief, chronic stress, infertility, or the particular weight that comes from serving others— you don't have to figure out how to start the conversation. Whether you are struggling in high school, college, or the world of adulting, I'll help with that. I came back to therapy because I noticed a high number of individuals in need but not enough therapists who are able to navigate cultural diversity in therapy.

I am a Guyanese-born American-raised world traveler who has experienced life and appreciates diversity in all aspects. I bring a holistic lens to my private practice, working with adults and families facing PTSD, trauma, infertility, sleep challenges, and the hard parts of life that don't fit into a tidy category.

I believe your mental health, physical health, and sense of purpose are all connected — and we work with all of it.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and National Board‐Certified Health and Wellness Coach with extensive experience in veteran-centered care, higher education, and community mental health. I have extensive knowledge and practice in individual and group interventions. I am also passionate about process improvements in self and organizations. I have contributed to and led Lean Six Sigma process‐improvement initiatives. Prior to my current role at the VA Hospital, I spent nearly a decade as an Assistant Professor of Social Work and held key administrative roles in field education, accreditation, and curriculum development.

My earlier clinical career includes intensive in‐home therapy, crisis intervention, and supervisory leadership supporting high‐risk children, families, and adults. Across all roles, I am known for my commitment to holistic care, spiritually and culturally responsive practice, and the development of systems that enhance learning, wellness, and community impact.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Fort Wayne

Finding postpartum therapists in Fort Wayne starts with looking for care that matches your specific postpartum needs. Postpartum support can include counseling for postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity changes, and relationship strain after a new baby. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience in perinatal mental health, postpartum depression counseling, or working with new parents. The PMH-C credential can also signal specialized training in perinatal mental health care.

In Fort Wayne, a local therapist may be a good fit if you prefer in-person sessions or want care close to home. Virtual appointments can also expand your options, especially when your schedule changes often, infant care affects timing, or physical recovery makes travel harder. Beyond specialty, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their style, the concerns they work with most often, and what a first session may look like.

Therapy in Fort Wayne can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected payment before you book. Headway helps you search postpartum therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review detailed profiles, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs after your insurance is verified. You can compare therapists, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
