With a passion for emotional wholeness and healing. Through the therapeutic process, I teach teen girls and millennials how to reconstruct a positive sense of self, regain safety, and reconnect to build intimacy in relationships with themselves and others. 

I love helping minority foster care teens heal emotional wounds from their past. Through my testimony of teen trauma and inspiring life story, I believe that together we can heal the past and shape the future. 

For a preview of my experience, I have an extensive history of working with adolescents and their families as an intensive family therapist providing in-home therapy. I have worked in outpatient and inpatient psychiatric hospital's serving teens and their families. For several years, I worked as a clinical director in a juvenile detention center and have worked as a consultant and therapist at an all-girls therapeutic group home. Along with private practice, I served as a comprehensive behavioral assessor providing assessments with recommendations and intervention for the courts and providers for kids who have been taken out of their homes due to abuse or neglect. 

Kabodcounseling, Helping Teens Heal is on a mission to provide therapeutic services to minority foster care teens to heal emotional and behavioral issues that are often related to childhood neglect, abuse, and trauma. We believe this will enable them to fulfill their educational and career goals while being self-sufficient and productive members of society.
