With extensive experience in trauma counseling, substance use treatment, crisis intervention, and forensic psychiatric care, I provide a grounded, evidence based approach that centers each client’s unique needs and strengths.

My clinical background includes serving survivors of violence through the Detroit Police Department’s Victim Assistance Program, supporting individuals in recovery at The Salvation Army Harbor Light Center, and delivering mental health services within correctional and forensic settings. These diverse environments have strengthened my ability to build meaningful therapeutic relationships, create a sense of safety, and support clients through complex emotional, behavioral, and situational challenges.I utilize a trauma informed, person centered approach and draw on modalities such as cognitive-behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, mindfulness-based coping skills, and strengths based interventions. I am passionate about empowering clients to heal from past wounds, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and make positive changes that support long term wellbeing.
​
Clients often describe me as warm, non-judgmental, and straightforward. I strive to create a collaborative environment where individuals feel heard, understood, and supported as they work toward their goals. I welcome clients from all backgrounds and am especially committed to supporting those impacted by trauma, addiction, and systemic barriers.
