About
As one who has experienced personal trauma and loss, I have an authentic understanding of how painful life circumstances impact us and how building new life skills can empower us once again.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor - Supervisor (LPC-S) with over 25 years of experience helping individuals heal, grow, and rediscover balance in their lives. I specialize in supporting women and older adults navigating trauma, grief, loss, PTSD, depression, and anxiety. My approach is grounded in empathy, trust, and collaboration—I believe in walking the journey of recovery with each client to help them find emotional wellness, clarity, and lasting change.
I earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Xavier University of Louisiana. My therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), the Recovery Model, and Mindfulness techniques to help clients identify thought patterns, build self-awareness, and strengthen resilience while cultivating emotional balance and healing.
Choosing therapy is a courageous step toward healing and growth. I meet each client with empathy, respect, and curiosity, honoring their story and capacity for change. Together, we work to rediscover hope, build resilience, and create a life grounded in purpose, peace, and genuine well-being.
