About me

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I have been practicing psychotherapy for over 5 years. The population that I have primarily worked with people severe and persistent mental illness. I have spent most of my career working with this population in different compacities from intensive residential treatment facilities, crisis services, day treatment and community support. I have completed the Duluth Model on Domestic Abuse. I have experience working with people with trauma and assisting them processing their trauma and how it affects their lives.

I focus on using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to assist the people I work with. I have experience in trauma informed care. I am a warm caring person, and it shows in my work. I enjoy finding what motivates people to change and being that person’s biggest cheerlead and as they work on themselves.

I enjoy hearing people’s stories and helping them meet the goals they set for themselves.
