Great to meet you!

Hello. I would describe myself as being kind, caring and full of positive energy. I have 8years of experience working with substance abuse. I have 10 years of experience working in the mental health field. I graduated with both my Bachelor's and Master's in Social Work from Wayne State University. I have experience working in schools with middle school and high school. My preference is to work with co-occurring disorders (mental health diagnosis and substance abuse diagnosis).

My approach to therapy

I am strong in my uses of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, TF-CBT, trauma informed care and Solution Focused theories.

What you can expect from me

The first session is usually the most intense. You can expect a direct approach to understanding your goals, expectations and how these can be accomplished. I like to create a safe environment for people to feel comfortable and not rushed.
