I have a decade of experience in the field, varying from academic and judiciary settings to private and public agencies. I have been primarily focused on working with younger populations (teenagers to young adults) in individual and family work, however am open to all ages, genders, races, sexualities, and cultures.

I know trying to find the right fit can be a tedious and tiring process, I hope to be of help for as little or as long as we may collaborate together.
