My therapeutic temperament is one that is interwoven with educating, creativity, imagination and humor, along with practical solutions and concrete goals.  One of my ultimate goals as a therapist is to empower the people I work with in therapy to maintain the belief that people have the capacity for change and are equipped with the inner resources to change, even if they never do. My belief is healing is a choice each person has the opportunity to chose which will enable move towards their own wellness and wholeness.  I am a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated.
