Founder of Special Day describes her role in the community as:

“ I am a mental health professional and  medical cannabis consultant. I provide psychotherapy mainly seeing patients with depression, anxiety, PTSD and other mental health diagnosis.  As a certified medical cannabis consultant, I offer support to individuals who would like to learn more about the benefits of the cannabis plant. I conduct the initial evaluations for people in need of a medical marijuana card to treat ongoing medical or mental health conditions.

I remember people talking about cannabis as a “bad drug” at an early age. It was not until my 20s that I discovered the beauty of this plant. As a mental health professional, my experience providing psychotherapy in treating depression and anxiety helped me realize the benefits of cannabis through a different lens.  Many people disclosed to me the use of cannabis as a way to alleviate the “pain”, whether it was emotionally, mentally or from a medical condition.  Listening to others showed me first-hand how cannabis was healing; serving as a coping method to many who just wanted to feel better.

Every milestone I have accomplished was to prepare me to become the founder of a Certified Minority Women Owned Business. I take life as a learning experience, one day at a time, and helping others by using their strengths and weakness. My journey as a woman in the field continues and I am looking forward to continue pursuing my journey of learning, helping others and mastering my skills.
