Welcome to Strength Redefyned where your needs are the priority - there’s strength in vulnerability and giving yourself grace. Often, driven and highly motivated Black professionals experience anxiety and high levels of stress that can present as feeling anxious, over-tired, nervous, difficulty concentrating, as well as other commonly overlooked symptoms. The demands of your career and personal li
fe can create fatigue, whether physical and/or emotional. As a successful Black professional, I understand the challenges that come with being the one who is typically leading and helping others – “the strong friend”. I am passionate about working with Black professional women to identify and define their strengths and goals, as well as to “redefyne” the narrative of strength. There is strength in intentional vulnerability, so let’s defy the belief that strength is not found in openness and let's improve your quality of life through self-care and stress management! My experience and credentials:
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and have been a mental health clinician for 9 years, and a helping professional for over 14 years. I obtained my Bachelor’s degrees in Social Work & Psychology in 2006 from The North Carolina Central University and went on to obtain my Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work in 2009 from the University of Pennsylvania. My background includes Counseling/Clinical Social Work domestically and internationally (United Kingdom), Management, Traditional Outpatient Therapy, Program Coordination, Behavior Specialist Consultation, and work with the Military population. MISSION:
To provide high quality mental health services to vulnerable populations, to increase understanding, awareness, and access to mental health resources, and to normalize the action of seeking mental health support to improve emotional health. With a commitment to excellence and professionalism, Strength Redefyned supports educating and empowering others to achieve balance in their lives through prioritizing self-care and giving back to their community.
