I am the Founder and Clinical Director of Paradise Wellness Therapy, LLC. Many years ago, I realized that my calling in life is to work with individuals suffering with mental health challenges. I began my work in the mental health profession as a volunteer at a local community mental health center. I listened to individuals share their personal stories with me day after day, and I felt honored. As I respectfully listened to them, I realized that it was the first time they had actually shared their stories.
Soon after beginning my volunteer work, I began to pursue a degree in Social Work. I am a graduate of Fort Valley State University and Savannah State University where I received my Master of Social Work degree in 2008. I have 12 years of experience serving individuals with various mental health concerns which include anger, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. Today, I am the Clinical Director of Paradise Wellness Therapy, LLC. helping you achieve your goal to achieve better mental health.
It is an honor for me, as a Therapist, to join you on your journey to mental wellness. In a safe and supportive environment, I will provide an opportunity for you to safely share your story. Together, we will listen with a sense of curiosity and openness, knowing that the answers you seek to resolve your issues are within. While there are many psychotherapies to choose from, I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, Strength-based Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. All aspects of our work together are tailored to meet your individual needs. With your strengths, the process of healing and change can begin right now.
I am committed to empowering you to get your life back.
