My approach to counseling:
I approach every client and their needs with compassion and care using existential and humanistic foundations. Keeping cultural considerations at the forefront of our work together, I remind my clients that they are the experts of their personal and professional life and that together, we can discover ways to have their needs met as they continue living the life they envision for themselves.
By providing tools for wellness, healthy boundaries, and intrapersonal insights, I help clients achieve personal freedom as they continue supporting and leading others.

Trainings & Workshops:
As an organizational wellness consultant and counselor, I see a lot of burnout from staff at the agencies I contracted with, and understandably so. I have been tasked with inspiring and motivating people to re-engage with their “why”. In both corporate settings and community service agencies, my trainings compassionately help people reconnect with the reason they got into their work in the first place - inspiring them to find new focus and energy that encourages employment satisfaction.
​
Using Sanctuary Model Principles and sociometrical techniques, my workshops provide liberated spaces to address and process difficult workplace issues. My trainings promote organizational wellness and a real attention to decreasing burnout.
I provide education for people to realize and heal from workplace trauma- turning one's experience into personal freedom, workplace satisfaction and an opportunity to thrive professionally.

Speaking Engagements:
Whether it is on a stage in a room full of people, an online workshop, or as a guest panelist, my goal is always to encourage and inspire my audience. I use my education and background to promote awareness and engage in conversations about how we can all achieve various levels of mental peace and overall wellness- professionally personally!
In addition to professional development, I use my story of overcoming to connect to those on their personal healing journey.
My memoir, UnRavel is a riveting story about surviving unspeakable trauma and overcoming mental illness. People are moved by captivating stories and mine is one of breaking the cycle of pain and trauma using self-love, therapy, and determination to break free.
Audiences leave inspired, believing in the power of healing, and having the tools to obtain and maintain personal freedom. ​

It’s time to Break the Cycle!
