Hello! I have a Masters in Mental Health Counseling. I am lucky to have a broad base of experience working in this field. I have experience working with many types of issues, including substance abuse, mild and severe mental health issues, issues of daily living, etc. I have worked in a variety of clinical settings. I have done work in the USA and overseas, so I have a broad base of work experience. The most important thing to know is that I am passionate about helping people make their lives better. I counsel mainly from a cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic orientation. However, I do choose from various approaches recognizing the uniqueness of each individual client. My therapeutic approach is to provide a warm, caring and safe environment where clients can address the problems that keep them from enjoying the most fulfilling life and reaching their goals. I believe the best approach to helping someone is to provide a supportive, warm, safe, and trusting environment where people can open up about anything without being judged in order to achieve the goal to live a happy and fulfilling life. I am a people person, so you can easily talk to me and know that you are in a good place with the right person. I have worked with people of all ages, races, and religions, so I can help various types of clients. I am someone you can turn to and rely on during your time of need for help.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of Alabama, Virginia, Georgia, the District of Columbia, and Maryland. My experience includes clinical social work, risk management, regulatory compliance, quality assurance, case management, crisis intervention, advocacy, brokerage, education, and facilitation working with diverse groups of children, adolescents, and adults in medical social work, child welfare, mental health/chemical dependency, corrections, HIV/AIDS, and Veteran Affairs. While working with these clients, I have acquired necessary clinical skills relevant to culturally diverse practice and effective outcomes. I am a well-organized, highly motivated, and an energetic team player dedicated to meeting my clients where they are through both micro and macro level social work interventions. Working in Mental Health for over 12 years, I've learned that people are literally trying to put the pieces of their life together just to make it through the day. Being sensitive to this, I've developed my practice model around the following quote, "We're only as strong as our weakest link; therefore do your best to strengthen someone today!" My goal every day is to strengthen someone (self-included) in some area. Let's Live in Purpose so we can Win on Purpose!
