About

I am a licensed professional counselor and approved clinical supervisor who has been in the field of mental health counseling for over 25 years. I have a particular interest in working with young adults who are striving to live their best possible lives and have a successful college experience. I’m a trained EMDR therapist, assisting clients who may have experienced various kinds of traumatic episodes in their earlier years that are currently interfering with their ability to thrive in their relationships and everyday lives. I also draw on numerous other psychotherapeutic modalities to help clients manage the numerous stressors and everyday challenges that might be negatively impacting them. My personal interests include knitting, jewelry designing, bird-watching, hiking, reading, attending concerts, and enjoying the beauty of nature. I have two beautiful black cats, Cordelia and Desdemona.

As an educator and a leader, she is committed to encourage students to take responsibility for their education and provide them the means to achieve personal and professional success.
She feels very fortunate to be around genuine people who accept and continue to mentor her. Both, their mentorship advice and her dedicated spirit to achieve have pushed her to obtain a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration, a Minor in Psychology and two Masters’ Degrees one in Contemporary Management and the other in Pastoral Ministry at Caldwell University. She is proud of these accomplishments and feels honored that Caldwell University gave her the platform to advance her professional career. Her true reward comes from serving individuals to overcome adversities and accomplish their goals.
Her position as the EOF Director at Caldwell University is giving her ample opportunities to be creative, therefore, she enjoys implementing old ideas, designing, and developing new ideas to support the program objectives. She enjoys planning programming using education, character builder tips and cultural awareness to bring clarity, understanding and happiness to those she serves, especially during challenging situations. The opportunity to work with students from diverse background inspires her to cultivate her ability to communicate in many languages. This experience continues to broaden her understanding and appreciation for other cultures.
Her experience, she said, is a teaching tool for her and the people she serves. She is an advocate for justice, positive changes and better opportunities for students. She is a lifelong learner; she is pursuing her ED. D, in higher education and organizational leadership. She is committed to use her creativity and knowledge to strengthen the EOF program at Caldwell University academically, socially and professionally. She is committed to use her leadership skills in higher education to recruit, retain, and graduate college students while remaining their mentor and role model.
