Nice to meet you

Mental health treatment should not be traumatic. I am drawn to working with individuals who have been historically mislabeled and misunderstood. I have supported many who’ve had negative experiences with mental health services and every reason not to trust me. I’ve also provided effective counsel to emergency room physicians and nurses and have a deep appreciation for the unique stressors frontline workers face. My goal is to offer compassionate, trustworthy care in a safe and supportive space.
