I have my associate's and bachelors in criminal justice and a minor in human services . I'm currently obtaining my masters in mental health counseling.

Some sayings that I hold and live by are:

• Healing is not linear

• It's okay not to be okay - Michael Clifford

• It does matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop - Confucius

• Rome wasn't built in a day - John Heywood

Many people want to know that they are seen and heard and that they are not alone. As a mental health professional I feel grateful to be able to give an ear and help the people who walk through my door.

If the mind is suffering, so shall the body. A reflection to tell you that it is time to reset, relax , reevaluate, slow down and work on you. As a counselor it is a gift to be able to help each assess their needs to give them the best care letting them know they are not alone.
