  "You can't pour from an empty cup.

 

My passion for helping and assisting people started at an early age while completing community service work through agencies such as United Way of Northeast Louisiana and Girl Scouts of America. I loved that selfless acts could make others feel accomplished and worthy. It was these experiences that led me to the field of Social Work.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Louisiana.
