I work virtually in the community of Akron, Ohio. I have been with The Emotional PPE Project for four years now, working with doctors, RN's, LPN's, CNA's, RTT's, etc. I am in private practice, currently, offering affordable mental health therapy. Previous work experience includes providing mental health therapy to low-income families and children, working in a correctional setting, and working with people with substance use disorders. I have experience working with marginalized people, am culturally competent, and use my understanding and knowledge in my work. I am LGBTQIA friendly, affirming, and safe. I'm body positive. I have a gang and tattoo culture curiosity, 😂. I also have a great sense of humor. 😊 My philosophy is unconditional positive regard. I am welcoming and affirming to anyone from any experience. Life can be a difficult journey, at times. I like telling my clients that I will walk with them until they are able to walk on their own.
