I have spent several years working with and caring for people in vulnerable and challenging situations, including those living with cancer and other major illnesses, grieving loss, vulnerable youth, broken families, and those preparing for or journeying through marriage. I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Pastoral Ministry at Nyack College, New York NY; a Master of Divinity in Urban Mission at Westminster Theological Seminary in Glenside PA; and a PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy at Eastern University, St. Davids PA. I have completed Level 1 Training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy, which I incorporate into my work with couples. I have also trained in Ecosystemic Structural Family Therapy at the Philadelphia Child and Family Therapy Training Center, Philadelphia, PA, and I am a certified Grief Counseling Specialist (CTCS) and Certified Trauma Professional (CTP).
I am a Professional Member and Clinical Fellow of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT), a member of the Christian Association for Psychological Studies (CAPS), and the Black Doctoral Network.
I approach therapy using a family systems perspective in conjunction with solution-focused, structural, and bioecological elements to discover and address the varied needs of my clients.
