Female

I am originally from New York born and raised. I relocated to Maryland in 2012. I attended Lehman College in the Bronx where I obtained my bachelor's degree in Psychology with a minor in Elementary Education in 2003 while being a member of the track and field team, specializing in the 400-meter dash. I graduated from Fordham University in 2009 with a master's degree in Social Work with a specialization in Gerontology. I then went on to obtain my PhD in Advanced Studies in Human Behavior from Capella University in 2022. I have always known I wanted to help people which is why I went into social work. I always wanted to work with children which is why I chose to minor in elementary education; however, I am most appreciative of what I learned through my gerontology studies while at Fordham University because of my grandmother. My grandmother was my best friend until she passed away. My knowledge and training in genecology prepared me to be a better granddaughter, advocate, friend and motivator to my grandmother. My training allowed me to help my grandmother find her voice and utilize it to advocate for herself regarding the care she wanted, needed and deserved. I have had the honor and privilege to work with in various settings which allowed me to meet and work with a diverse background of people. I have experience working with young children, teens, young adults and older adults. I have experience working with individuals living with various mental health challenges as well as substance use challenges. My therapy approach is to provide a no judgement zone. My goal is to help you achieve your goal. My clients often tell me I am easy going, easy to talk to and make them feel like they have a safe space to be themselves and express their feelings.

How do we select providers listed on PsychHub.com?

The care options presented consist of treatment providers that we have assessed to be quality providers across a range of services for mental health, substance use, relationships, and other well-being needs. We aim to include only high quality providers and multiple viable options for those seeking care.

What is the relationship between Psych Hub and these providers?

The providers listed on our site are all independent entities from Psych Hub. We only list providers where we have a contractual relationship with a network, group, or practice that a provider is a part of, or where we have a direct contractual relationship with the provider. That contract governs the terms of participation on the Psych Hub site, and in some cases, as mentioned below, the provider’s, group’s, or network’s use of Psych Hub's educational content. There is no other affiliation between Psych Hub and the providers listed on our site.

Do participating providers pay us?

To make our site free for consumers, Psych Hub receives fees from provider groups, networks, or individual providers to connect with potential clients who are a fit for their services. Some also purchase Psych Hub's educational content for practitioner training and client support. These fees enable us to operate our service, including screening and updating information on each provider.

How do we determine which ones to display?

Rather than make specific provider recommendations, we present options and information so you can make an informed decision on what provider best fits your needs. Where we have multiple participating providers, we present multiple options (and where we don't, we prioritize adding more options to our site over time). We present providers whose capabilities, insurance coverage, availability and other attributes best match your stated needs. If many providers appear to equally meet your needs, we display a selection of them at random. Our decision on which participating providers to display is never impacted by the amount of fees we receive from them.

What causes us to remove providers from our site?

We require that providers meet all licensing requirements of states where they offer services. If a provider loses their license, they are removed from our site for that state or service. We also seek feedback from users on providers they find on our site. We investigate significant negative feedback and remove providers if we conclude that to be appropriate.
