With over a decade of experience in various therapeutic settings, she holds dual licensures for professional counseling in Texas (with supervisor status) and Georgia and is also a Nationally Board-Certified Counselor. A proud alumna of Tennessee State University, Ms. M earned her master’s degree in Counseling Psychology while completing her practicum at the Lloyd C.

Her early career included serving extensively at Alive Hospice as a volunteer grief counselor for children and adolescents and taking on a leadership role as a Lead Mental Health Specialist at Vanderbilt Psychiatric Hospital.
Throughout her professional journey, Ms. M has cultivated a holistic perspective on mental health care, shaped by her diverse roles in healthcare, including case management, pharmacy, optical specialties, and behavioral clinical quality compliance for individuals on the autism spectrum.
