High satisfaction rate with clients

Clients report a lasting relationship

Nice to meet you

With over a decade of experience in the mental health field, I have been honored to work with adult clients from all walks of life. My professional background includes working for hospitals, addiction treatment facilities, and inpatient and outpatient settings within the criminal justice system. I believe in developing a collaborative, warm, and strengths-based approach to treatment. My goal in therapy is to build upon your existing strengths while facilitating a safe and non-judgmental space to explore your feelings, thoughts, and behaviors.
