Individual Counseling

I have experiences working with a diverse population of individuals. This include both male and female, adolescents, young, middle age, and elderly adults across multiple socio-economic ranges and ethnicities, Africans, African Americans, Asians, Europeans and English-speaking Hispanics. Working with a diverse population of individuals has enlarged my awareness that a diverse population encompasses a multitude of belief systems and norms. To that end, I offer a safe and calming environment free from judgment to listen and support you in embracing your personal power to enable me to learn of and respect your beliefs and honor your cultural identity.

 

My experiences enable me to help individuals redirect or channel negative energy into positive energy; let go of self-pity and low self-esteem; regain or find a voice that was previously silenced through physical, verbal, and/or emotional abuse; move beyond the past and present and realize hope in the future to become fully visible in today's society. 

​

I seek to help my clients from a perspective of trust to help ensure client’s self-concept become more positive and realistic. My major focus is to help individuals open up and be an effective and active agent in their search for meaning and well-being through active listening to enable them to work through unprocessed pain and hurt and to turn a narrative from negative to positive. 

​

Through this process of active listening, individuals will be able to experience their true nature, realize hope and find Soul Justice creatively, spiritually, and compassionately. 

Couples and Marriage Counseling

I'm a Certified Prepare / Enrich Facilitator who is committed to helping couples, whether engaged, dating or married, enrich and improve relationships, regardless of differences, issues or concerns. This starts with the process of Listening. While there appears to have been an attack on marriages, many individuals are committed to love and respect each other until life's circumstances makes it impossible for them to meet those goals.

​

Here at DBD Counseling Services, I am driven by a single goal; to do my part in making the world a better place for all. My decision making process is informed by comprehensive empirical studies and high quality data evaluation. I strive to help couples build productive relationships, ensuring their individual voices are heard and respected.
