"There is no point in being the first, if you will also be the last".
Before our first session, I offer free phone consultations to make sure I’m a good fit for your counseling needs. My rate is $75 for 50 minute counseling sessions. I also have an income based sliding scale available upon request. I will provide all of the necessary documentation for out-of-network insurance claims submissions. Please check with your insurance provider for your reimbursement policy when working with an out of network provider.
I am pursuing a Masters Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, specifically with a concentration on women, children, and other marginalized communities.
I have served in various capacities within my campus community including as Vice President of the Student Government Association, a Residential Assistant for various residential buildings, and a student secretary to the Office of Residence Life in addition to the many roles I’ve played in servicing students and student organizations. I’ve also worked closely with the college's administration through my time on the Financial Success Committee of the College’s Board of Trustees. When off campus, I enjoy spending time with my nieces and nephews, and volunteering to support the kids involved with the Women's Resource Center to End Domestic Violence. I am supported through my mentors, loyal friends and Scottie siblings, and family. You can find that my passions stem from my love of mentoring children and pre-teens, as I am pursuing a Masters Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, specifically with a concentration on women, children, and other marginalized communities.

My counseling work seeks to explore resilience in children, adolescents, and marginalized identities through the use of mindfulness based approaches, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). A motto I live by comes from a diversity activist, Amber Hikes, "There is no point in being the first, if you will also be the last".
