Nice to meet you
Welcome—if you’re juggling work, school, parenting, relationships, or a major transition, you don’t need another lecture—you need a plan that fits real life. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and former School Counselor specializing in anxiety, ADHD, mood concerns, and burnout. My approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally responsive for BIPOC clients. Using CBT, solution-focused tools, and trauma-informed care, I help you build lasting habits and routines. If faith matters, I offer Judeo-Christian-aligned support by request.
