I'm so glad you're here! I am a licensed clinical professional counselor from Chicago IL. I have 14 years of experience providing therapy to an array of clients such as caregivers of people living with Alzheimer's disease, as well as women, people of color and the LGBTQIA+ community. Do you want to get rid of imposter syndrome or learn how to love yourself? I have experience working with people attempting to cope with many concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, grief, relational issues, career & work situations, self-esteem and caregiver stress. Book with me by clicking on my website or contact me for more availability.
I was born and raised on the Westside of Chicago by a wonderful, dedicated single mother. She instilled in me the importance of education. I knew early on that I wanted to be in a helping profession. Navigating life as a black woman comes with many unique challenges. I chose this profession to support and guide others.
My professional background and life experience has prepared me to help guide you through life's most difficult challenges. I have lost many loved ones and continue to learn how to live with grief. I am also a mom to a toddler. Motherhood has proven to be one of the most beautiful and challenging experiences of my life.
