I work with people who feel like life is happening to them—those carrying anxiety, depression, or overwhelming stress, still feeling the weight of past experiences or painful relationships, or noticing that old coping patterns like substance use no longer do what they used to. Most of the people I see arrive with a growing sense that something isn't working, and a willingness to try something different. My approach is collaborative, warm, and focused on understanding what's getting in the way and building a path forward together.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 10 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based care to individuals, couples, and families. I specialize in supporting clients who are navigating anxiety, depression, stress-related challenges, trauma, substance use concerns, medical issues, and major life transitions. My background includes conducting comprehensive intake assessments, psychosocial evaluations, treatment planning, and case management services to help clients receive well-rounded support tailored to their needs.

I earned my Master of Social Work from Howard University School of Social Work, and I am deeply passionate about helping people feel more balanced, understood, and empowered in their daily lives. I believe therapy should feel collaborative, supportive, and judgment-free. My goal is to create a safe space where you can openly explore your experiences, strengthen resilience, and work toward meaningful personal growth at your own pace.

I work with adults and teens who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood changes, trauma, or life stress and feel stuck despite trying to cope alone. Others seek clarity around symptoms or support during major life transitions. Children and adolescents may struggle with emotional regulation, attention, mood changes, or behavioral concerns. Often, individuals or parents want relief and a clear path forward with a provider who listens and helps them feel more balanced, focused, and hopeful.

I believe that optimal mental health is achieved through an ongoing, multi-pronged approach. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner I am well trained in the art and science of prescribing medications to improve mental health symptoms. I also encourage adjunctive treatment modalities such as CBT. Empowering patients to care for themselves is part of my goal. I embrace opportunities to help my patients gain greater personal insight, because when you can see yourself, you can change yourself.
