Great to meet you!

I started my counseling career in 2005 helping individuals with addiction and co-occurring disorders as a CASAC and then in 2018 began helping individuals as a LMSW and then in 2021 obtaining my LCSW.

I am trained in DBT, CBT, Motivational interviewing, Exposure Therapy, and Trauma Informed Care and working with individuals of all ages.

My approach to therapy

I approach therapy with individuals as the experts in their lives and seek to understand each person and their unique circumstances and needs as we build a relationship and form goals together for the individual’s best outcome.

What you can expect from me

During our first session you can expect me to explain my approach to working together and general questions to get to know what brings you to therapy and will listen with an open- mind and understanding.
