As a mental health professional for over 20 years, I have always been passionate about changing lives. My clinical background includes forensic mental health and medical social work. It is remarkable to see the gradual progress in clients and the transformative power of therapy at work. The most rewarding part of counseling is the therapeutic relationship with the client and how that foundation is used as a catalyst for change. I love to see the light and joy come back in my client's lives!

I can currently offer appointments within 1-2 weeks. Treatment specialties: Trauma and Loss. My clients typically have tried to avoid therapy for months, perhaps, years; therefore, there are layers of issues to address. Most clients are looking for immediate solace to include feeling validated, welcome, and to form a trusting alliance with their therapist. We will establish that very quickly. While many of my clients present with relationship issues, but trauma, loss, moral injury, and unresolved grief may be at the root of the problem. I love working with a variety of clients and issues. I look forward to hearing from you.
