I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with 14 years of professional experience, and I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. My expertise includes helping clients navigate challenges such as lack of motivation, self-esteem issues, career difficulties, and coping with significant life changes. I specialize in supporting individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, compassion fatigue, and other mental health concerns, with a particular focus on trauma-informed care. In my practice, I prioritize creating an open and safe environment where clients feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. I believe that taking the first step towards a more fulfilling and happier life requires immense courage, and I am committed to being a supportive partner in that journey. My approach is collaborative, working closely with clients to identify their goals and develop personalized strategies to achieve them, utilizing evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I am particularly passionate about empowering individuals to overcome obstacles and realize their full potential. As the child of Jamaican immigrants, I bring a culturally relevant perspective to my work, valuing diversity and inclusivity in all aspects of my practice. I am also a person of faith, which informs my strong belief system and commitment to ethical and compassionate care. In addition to my professional work, I enjoy meeting new people and building meaningful connections with my clients. I am dedicated to continuous learning and growth, both personally and professionally, to ensure that I provide the highest quality of care. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you, supporting you in your personal growth and helping you achieve the life you envision.
