Great to meet you!

I have an MSW and have provided therapy services for more than 20 years. I worked in various settings that include school-based therapy, juvenile corrections, residential settings, and have worked extensively with families involved with Child Protective Services.

A bit about my approach to therapy

You are the leader of your own treatment. I am committed to help empower you to become the best version of yourself. With the use of comprehensive and dedicated services, my goal is to help clients of all ages and from diverse backgrounds. A person-centered, individualized treatment approach provides clients the most successful direction as they work to reach their treatment goals. I want to accompany you on that journey and be part of your support network.
