Education:
Cleveland State University
Professional Interests:
• Work with marginalized populations
• Work with Black women and Black women graduate students
• Identity development
• Multicultural Counseling
• Relational Concerns
• Grief and Loss
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Family Systems
Approach to Therapy:
I employ an eclectic approach, combining the tenets of Relational Cultural Therapy (RCT), Black Feminist Thought (BFT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Family Systems Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support the goals of my clients. I view each client as the expert of their experience, tailoring each session to fit their needs. My research has focused on the lived experiences of Black women within doctoral programs and addresses the inequities of higher education. Through collaboration, self-compassion, and client centered care, I guide my clients towards hope, healing, and wholistic wellness.
Approach to Wellness:
While significant, my role as a doctoral intern represents only a fraction of my identity. I make time to remain active, while also nurturing my love for reading, music, art, movies, food, and travel. I also love playing video games, binge watching my favorite shows, and anything else that replenishes my soul.
