Great to meet you!

I have been in the behavioral health field for the past 13 years. I have worked in a school for children K-8 with behavioral, psychological, and developmental concerns; in a nursing home with dementia clients; on an involuntary psychiatric unit in a behavioral health hospital; in a detox for substance use disorders; and intensive outpatient levels of care for both substance use and mental health struggles.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques.

What you can expect from me

My primary focus is not only to provide validation, and effective feedback to help individuals successfully meet their goals, but to provide them with the support needed to do so.
