About

Welcome! So glad you are here! I am Connie and I am a DeafBlind licensed clinical social worker with HeartForza Mental Wellness and Consulting, LLC. I am dedicated to supporting the Deaf, DeafBlind, and Hard of Hearing (DDBHH) population in the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area. I serve clients and communities who use American Sign Language (ASL) in therapy and consultation. I offer consultation, training, and clinical supervision. As a HeartForza therapist, I believe that mental health care and training should be accessible, affordable, and stigma-free. My passion and commitment is to empower individuals, couples, families, and communities to fulfill their potential through evidence-based therapeutic practices and personalized consulting. I prioritize holistic well-being and foster a caring and supportive environment where healing and growth can flourish.
