I am a licensed clinical social worker in Illinois and Indiana, I have spent most of my career working to help people that have experienced trauma understand their own narrative. Sometimes, life events occur in adulthood that necessitate short term intervention to assist us to process, understand and reset.

Your treatment plan will be created by you and for you so that the piece of you that has been impacted is made whole.

I am an African American female Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois and I started my career in the counseling field in 2001, as a group home counselor for at-risk male youths, homeless young male adults, and their families, where we worked on family reunification, substance abuse, LGBTQ+ Issues, job skills, life skills, and independent living. From there I moved more into the substance abuse field working with DUI offenders, court mandated persons ordered to do anger management, and as an interventionist for families, and individuals who struggle with all forms of addiction and co-dependency. Since then, I returned to school to obtain my masters in Clinical Mental Health, during which time I worked with individuals who struggled with family issues, depression, suicide, grief and loss, schizophrenia disorder, bi-polar disorder, anxiety disorder, PTSD, dually diagnosed individuals, and those with other co-occurring disorders in an outpatient hospital clinic setting. I then furthered my career and obtained a second master's degree in School Counseling, where I enveloped experience in working with students in an inner-city school setting who struggled with body image, depression, suicide, self-harm, substance abuse, LGBTQ+ issues, ADHD, ADD, OCD, neighborhood trauma, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, physical abuse, and post-traumatic stress disorder. My primary therapeutic orientations are cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy; however, I strongly believe that it is essential to meet a person "where they are at" and establish a therapeutic alliance using my developed professional skills and eclectic abilities to provide each individual with a therapeutic orientation is necessary to move them toward a place of peace and healing.

Hello, and welcome. I believe that healing does not happen in isolation. Each of us is shaped by our families, communities, culture, socioeconomic experiences, and the systems we move through every day. My work is grounded in understanding the full context of who you are — not just your symptoms. I began my career in community-based settings, which deeply shaped my belief that people are incredibly resilient when given the right support and tools. I am trained at the Family Institute, where I developed a strong foundation in understanding how generational patterns, family systems, and cultural narratives influence our decision-making, relationships, and emotional well-being. My approach is multisystemic and flexible. We often begin with practical, behavioral strategies to help reduce immediate distress — whether that’s anxiety, depression, stress, or relationship challenges. As our work deepens and trust builds, I integrate more insight-oriented and psychoanalytic approaches to explore underlying patterns and help create lasting change. Clients often come to me when they: Feel stuck in repeated relationship patterns Struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, or burnout Are navigating life transitions Want to better understand how their background shapes their current experiences Are high-functioning but feel internally overwhelmed I strive to create a space that feels thoughtful, culturally responsive, and grounded. I will both support and gently challenge you when needed. My goal is not just symptom relief — but helping you feel more aligned, empowered, and clear in your life. Therapy is a collaborative process. You are the expert in your experience; I bring tools, perspective, and structure to help you move forward. If you’re ready to begin, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
