My Story
Golden Life Therapy and Wellness Services, LLC cracks the urgent problem facing busy working adults: access to psychotherapy services during evenings and weekends. I am woman owned, minority led business that creates safe spaces to explore mental health and wellness issues during hours convenient to the working adult. I have over 12 years of expert experience and knowledge in mental health. I have had the privilege of providing social support and psychotherapy to active-duty service members of the United States Army, United States Veterans of the Armed Forces, adults experiencing severe mental illness in state mental hospitals, and working with incarcerated individuals in a state prison. I have a wealth of diverse clinical experiences that I use as tools to support each client’s progress in their own individualized journey. I am licensed to independently practice psychotherapy as a clinical social worker in Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa, and Georgia.
I am passionate about mental wellness because I have been a client of such services myself. I will never forget one of the most terrifying experiences of my life. I was out to lunch with two friends. We had just ordered the appetizers. I blinked, and when I opened my eyes, about five people were looking down at me. I was on the concrete, surrounded by shattered glass, and my entire body was aching. I was told I had a seizure. That seizure was a result of pushing aside my mental and physical health because I was prioritizing my job. It was in that moment, I knew something had to change. I began my own journey to find a therapist. Even as a therapist, I knew I needed the support. The problem I faced time and time again, was that no one offered hours in the evening or on the weekends for sessions in my area. I still remember how exhausted I felt calling therapist, after therapist, only to find out their hours wouldn’t accommodate my needs. I felt defeated. I finally found the help I needed. Once, I healed myself, I knew I needed to help create a solution. My private practice offers therapy for the working adult at hours that will accommodate their busy schedule.
