I have over 25 years of working with children, families and adults from an academic and mental health perspective. My therapeutic stance is based on the belief that you, the expert, have all the tools to assist you with a solution that best fits your life. You are the expert of your life, and I am the guide to be used by you.
My experience consist of working with African American males, Special Education Issues, Cultural Identity Issues, Adult / Adolescence: depression, anger, confidence, anxiety, social awkwardness and adjustment issues. I also have extensive experience working with athletes on improving peak performance and performance anxiety issues.
PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY
Everything is growth and development. The answers or guidance one may need are always within one’s self. The ability to calm one's internal chatter and truly listen to the self provides one with the perspective to address conflicts and issues in one's life. Calming the self provides our present minds to examine the narratives we’ve created and framed our existent around. The ability to go back into your experiences and change and create a new narrative is the mission of my work.
