Congratulations on your courageous step toward personal growth and healing! Whether you seek support for a specific challenge or simply exploring ways to enhance your well-being, I am here to accompany you.
I am committed to fostering a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment. I hope to empower individuals to use skills to navigate life challenges with resilience and self-compassion. As an advocate for the human-animal bond, I am deeply attuned to the significance of the relationships individuals share with their furry, feathered, or scaled non-human family members. I recognize the profound impact these bonds have on mental and emotional well-being, providing unconditional love, companionship, and comfort during both joyful and challenging times.
I am a proud graduate of Tuskegee University, where I earned a bachelor's degree in Social Work and, I pursued further education, obtaining my master's degree in Social Work and a certificate in Veterinary Social Work from the University of Tennessee. As a Licensed Social Worker (LSW) with a multitude of experience across different settings, including schools, veterinary hospitals, and outpatient clinics I can adapt my skills to meet your unique needs. I draw from a diverse range of therapeutic modalities, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based techniques, Animal Assisted Interventions (AAI), and psychodynamic approaches.
Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, grieving, or simply seeking personal growth, I'm here to provide guidance and support every step of the way!
