A Woman In Transition is A Powerful FORCE. I specialize in counseling women who are moving into and out of a relationship, women starting or wanting a new career, women transitioning from working outside the home to staying home with family, women starting again for any number of reasons, and women who just want their lives to be better and unencumbered by past hurts. My 14 years of experience in counseling also includes working with young women who are developing their identities; helping them understand how to love themselves inside and out, and developing them into confident and productive women.

This profession is personal for me because growing up I never saw many people who looked like me that were therapist. Additionally, I wanted to erase the mental health stigma in the African American community and bring awareness that just because a person seeks therapy does not mean they are crazy. In my opinion, everyone could use therapy. I don't know anyone that does not have some issues that he or she can be working on in therapy.

I became a therapist because I have always been deeply interested in understanding people and helping them navigate their inner worlds. From a young age, I was drawn to conversations about feelings, motivations and personal growth. I found myself naturally inclined to listen and provide support to friends and family during their challenging times and it was through these experiences that I realized how fulfilling it was to make a positive impact on someone's life.

Clients should be ready to be challenged and encouraged to get outside of their comfort zone.

For me, there is no ideal client. To some extent, everyone is on a spectrum of depression and anxiety, and I seek to work with clients who need assistance becoming oriented toward improvement. I have personal and professional experience and understand how difficult it is to find someone patient enough to grow alongside a client through the therapeutic process. I want to work alongside you to help you live a happy, meaningful life with these conditions.
