I believe in empowering women and girls toward healing through a wellness and strengths-based approach. While providing a safe and supportive environment, I will work with you collaboratively to identify goals and develop tools for optimizing emotional and physical wellness. My goal is to help you find your strength to manage whatever challenges you are facing.
I am Licensed Independent Social Worker with experience working with teens and adults facing chronic and terminal health challenges, navigating end-of-life issues with patients, promotion of health and wellness in professional human service work, and optimizing resiliency.
I currently work at Columbus Women's Wellness who specializes in issues impacting women and adolescent girls. To schedule an appointment please contact CWW at 614-383-8381.
