My overall goal is to facilitate personal insight to help you achieve the inner peace and balance you need to be the person you want to be.

My specialties include working with adult victims of childhood trauma, adolescents, & veterans. My services also include anger management & mental health assessments for worker's compensation claims, court orders, or return to duty/school as well as a focus on helping people take better care of themselves in their everyday lives.
My Child Development background has been an invaluable piece of my clinical work and is often the foundation of my work with adults & families. My practical experiences in both the social work and child development fields has expanded my clinical knowledge & further developed my ability to provide effective therapeutic treatment.
