Description
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has a demonstrated history with Interpersonal violence survivors with complex trauma. I work with many life presenting issues such as Acute stress, family conflicts, parenting, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, PTSD, maladaptive behaviors etc... I always keep in mind that you are more than your presenting problems. My counseling is founded in the belief that people need to heal in order to grow and ultimately thrive. By integrating evidence-based psychotherapies with empowerment and life skills coaching, I help my clients not only manage symptoms, but also train their mind and body to evolve.
I work with individuals and groups in very creative and compassionate ways to engage with the content of clients’ thoughts to help them reach clarity, understanding of themselves and peace. I have a deep understanding of crisis and interpersonal violence situations. Additionally, I have extensive experience with dual mental health diagnoses. I am also specialized in complex trauma therapies and focused on promoting human dignity as it relates to a person's wholeness.
As a certified Empowerment and Life Skills Coach, I help my clients identify and rebuild belief systems that no longer serve them so that they can grow and manifest their personal truths. I earned my Masters in Social Work from Adelphi University. I was born and raised in West Africa and speaks English and French fluently.
