About me

Hello, I’m a licensed clinical social worker and PsyD with a specialty in mental health practices. I have over 20 years of diversified experience working with all age groups and demographics.

I tailor my therapy approach based off the assessment of the client and establish the appropriate treatment modality in conjunction with the client. Therapy is to alleviate symptom reduction and to attainable treatment goals. I describe myself as an eclectic therapist, laid back, straightforward with gentle sensitivity based on case circumstances. I want my clients to see a relatable person, I am not a textbook therapist.

It is my passion to work with others in the midst of their crisis to guide them to a safe place for healing and recovering from recurrent patterns of disruptive and dysfunctional behavior.
