I have been a licensed clinical therapist since 1997. I  have spent years helping women, men and families process grief loss, trauma, anxiety, depression and matters of the heart through my private practice "Coat of Many Colors LLC". In 2022 I received my Grief Educator Certificate led by expert David Kessler. "  After experiencing the loss of my father, grandmother, sister, brother, uncle and a host of friends, I found that there wasn't a safe space for brown and black women to process our grief in an environment where there was cultural competency and compassion.  "I created Brown Girls Grieve to speak a word of comfort to you beautiful women who are weary, discouraged, grieving or need hope and assurance your heart's can heal.
