DEI Consulation

By focusing on the needs of the individual, the department, and the organization as a whole, I provide customized training, needs assessments and interventions to help employees feel seen and supported.
In DEI consulting, we look at how well companies incorporate DEI and how they provide integrative support to employees. Today, many companies are focused on diversity — but they’re still normed on white male dominant values (as we can see in the way motherhood and maternity leave are treated in many businesses). We’re becoming more diverse, but companies still haven’t adjusted to the diversity we have today. My goal is to help businesses and individuals move from tokenizing diversity to valuing equity.
By assessing where a company is, I create policies supporting an environment that encourages innovation. Now that we have this diversity, we have to help people come to the table — we have to really give them a seat. I look at how business owners tap into inclusivity. How can you make sure you really see the employee in front of you? I encourage employers to recognize differences while leaning into what we have in common. Acknowledging what’s different about ourselves opens up opportunities for growth and learning, for support rather than alienation.
Consultation Process:
I am the creator of Emerge Counseling, Consultation, and Wellness Services. My life’s passion is to help empower Women of Color to unlock their healthiest and happiest version of themselves.
Whether you are struggling through a life transition, experiencing race-based stress, or managing mental health concerns like anxiety or depression, our shared goal is to connect you to the best version of yourself. I believe that identity shapes our experiences and that developing awareness allows our true selves to emerge. I want to help you cultivate your ideal life on your own terms.
For the past 15 years, I’ve worked in community mental health, intensive outpatient settings, and higher education. I provide counseling services that emphasize wellness — both physical and mental — as a form of prevention.
