Who We Are
evidence-based Wellness
We are a practice grounded in applied emotional intelligence, committed to advancing meaningful, lasting change across individuals, relationships, and systems.
We understand that many personal, relational, and organizational challenges are shaped by how emotions are experienced, interpreted, and expressed. Through a research-informed and thoughtfully applied approach, we bring clarity to these experiences and equip those we serve with tools that foster stronger patterns, deeper connection, and more effective outcomes.
Engaging with LP Counseling & Therapy Services is an investment in growth. It is a process that supports couples in moving from chaos to connection, organizations in cultivating collaborative and high-performing environments, and clinicians in strengthening their practice through more intentional and effective use of emotional intelligence.
The result is more than insight—it is the ability to apply emotional intelligence with clarity and confidence, creating sustainable impact in how you relate, lead, and live.
my story
meet the founder
As a bi-cultural Caribbean native, I bring a nuanced understanding of identity, culture, and lived experience—perspectives that shape my work as a leader, educator, and expert in emotional intelligence. My clinical foundation includes school-based counseling and diverse therapeutic and managed-care settings, where I have supported individuals, couples, and groups, with a strong focus on helping couples move from conflict and disconnection toward clarity and connection.
I design and deliver CEU trainings, develop curriculum, and provide clinical supervision—translating research into practical strategies that improve client outcomes and professional effectiveness. I have also created systems to streamline clinical workflows and track team progress, and I consult with organizations to strengthen communication, leadership, and emotional intelligence.
my background
I bring a strong academic and clinical foundation, including a PhD in General Psychology, with research focused on reducing aggression and advancing emotional well-being through evidence-based, quantitative, and qualitative approaches.
What sets my work apart is the ability to translate research into practical, real-world strategies that improve relationships, decision-making, and measurable outcomes. I provide culturally competent care that considers how lived experiences shape behavior and relational patterns, while also supporting organizations in strengthening communication, leadership effectiveness, and emotional intelligence.
Whether working with individuals, clinicians, or teams, I offer a supportive and confidential environment grounded in trust and professionalism—equipping those I serve with the clarity, tools, and confidence to move forward with intention, resilience, and lasting impact.
WHY CHOOSE ME
-
As a clinician trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I have acquired the necessary skills to handle trauma issues that arise in adolescence. Additionally, I can provide support for anxiety and depression, as well as relationship issues that stem from these experiences.
-
As a therapist working with couples, I have realized that utilizing evidence-based treatments for couple work is necessary for achieving desired results. I became a certified Prepare-Enrich Facilitator and Trainer to train other clinicians to work with couples. I use my knowledge to provide culturally competent therapy that improves couple intimacy, builds trust and communication skills, and assists with the next step in their relationship, even post-infidelity. Being a wife myself, I understand the challenges that come with marriage. Though it may seem like any other dating relationship, I know from personal experience that building a deep and lasting love takes more than just a few fun dates.
