That experience changed everything for me.
I realized that mental health care isn’t just about diagnoses and treatment plans—it’s about showing up for people when they need it most, meeting them with empathy, and believing in their ability to heal. That’s when I knew: mental health chose me; I didn’t choose it. And from that point on, I’ve been committed to helping others find the peace, clarity, and support they deserve.My Journey Into Mental Health

My Passion

I hold a Doctorate in Clinical Social Work from the University of Kentucky and a Master’s degree in Social Work from Louisiana State University. These academic foundations have allowed me to deepen my clinical expertise and enhance the support I provide to clients navigating complex emotional challenges. I’m also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), which equips me with the tools to effectively understand and treat trauma—an area that is central to the healing work I do.

At ReNew Yu Counseling & Mental Wellness, my education and certifications guide a care approach that’s both intentional and deeply compassionate. I’m committed to walking alongside clients as they work through life’s challenges, rediscover their strength, and create meaningful change. I believe therapy is a powerful tool for transformation—and I’m honored to be part of that journey with you.
