I was living the life I always dreamed of—married to the love of my life, raising two beautiful daughters, and writing stories that mattered. But everything changed in an instant. My husband died unexpectedly, and I was left to navigate unimaginable grief with two babies in my arms. Just a year later, I lost my dream job. My once-bright world grew dark, and I lost myself in the pain. My daughters became afraid of the sadness that took over our home—and of me.
Desperate to heal, I turned to therapy. Over time, in that quiet chair, I learned to sit with sorrow, uncover the roots of old trauma, and reclaim my joy. I came to understand that grief is a mirror of love—that healing is messy, brave, and possible. Today, I walk beside others on their own grief and trauma journeys, not to fix, but to witness, hold, and help them find light again.
I’m a social worker and mental health counselor with a Master’s in Social Work from Tulane University. I work as a school-based clinician in Title I schools across Atlanta, where I support youth navigating complex trauma, poor academics, and behavioral challenges. I also counsel parents, educators, and adults in self-awareness, grief, conflict management, and relationship repair.
My passion for this work deepened through my own lived experiences with grief and loss. As a mother of two neurodivergent daughters, I’ve spent over a decade advocating for their unique learning needs. I successfully helped my eldest overcome reading delays linked to absent seizures and ADHD, and guided my youngest—diagnosed with 2e autism and speech processing challenges—toward remarkable growth in speech, executive functioning, and peer engagement.
