Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker that specializes in Substance Abuse and Mental Health. My passion for the field comes from a lengthy career of providing community services to vulnerable populations that need help the most. My therapeutic approach is highly adaptable and centered around the needs of my clients, so I am willing and able to meet a wide array of needs with a compassionate, holistic approach. Additionally, I have worked with Veterans and have expansive experience in the arena of Child Welfare, so I am capable of helping my clients navigate these specific systems.

My approach to therapy

When it comes to therapy, the only interest I have is my client’s success, however big or small that looks.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect compassion, comfort and empathy.
