About Me

I completed EMDR basic training in 2024 and look forward to integrating EMDR into my practice. I have been a therapist for over 14 years and specialize in PTSD/Trauma, Racial Identity, Anxiety, Depression, and Spirituality. I work with adolescents, adults, and families. My life and clinical experiences include working in churches, hospital chaplaincy, residential treatment facilities, community mental health, and clinical private practice for over 8 years.
