She also has experience working with couples, individuals, and groups.

Jahvon’s therapeutic goal is to ultimately strengthen and empower her clients to live their desired lives and provide therapeutic insight and techniques to both educate and increase the clients' self-trust in overcoming life’s difficulties and obstacles. Of course, this also holds true for learning when to “stop and smell the flowers” and other cliches.
