I have over ten years of experience working in the field of mental health. I completed my undergraduate degree in Psychology at Saint Leo University and obtained my Masters in Social Work from Indiana University.
I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, middle aged and 'antiqued' populations who are struggling to manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, mood disorders, relationship conflict and/or unresolved trauma.
I routinely utilize a plethora of evidence based treatment modalities in order to meet individualized needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) as well as Integrative and Holistic approaches that focus on mind, body and spirit are a few of the tools in my toolbox!
I approach the therapeutic environment in the most graceful manner possible. Engaging in therapy can often times be scary so I do my absolute best to create a supportive and comfortable space for everyone! I truly enjoy working with all populations but feel especially privileged working with our military and veteran service men and women!
