Nice to meet you

I work with people of all ages and backgrounds and have experience in a variety of settings, including inpatient psychiatric facilities, homeless outreach, work with individuals who have been incarcerated, older adults, Child Protective Services, divorce and blended family workshops, and outpatient mental health. I have a passion for supporting people as they navigate difficult times in their lives, no matter how big or small. I believe that everyone deserves to be listened to with compassion and without judgment. My main priority is providing client-centered care and tailoring treatment to each individual.
