With nearly two decades of social work practice, my mission is clear: to drive real change for those who need it most.
I’ve worked across the spectrum—from mood and psychotic disorders to the complex needs of older adults, veterans, and active duty service members. My experience spans crisis intervention, individual and group therapy, and I bring specialized expertise in sleep disorders and PTSD treatment.
At the core of my work is a fierce commitment to empowerment—helping clients not just survive, but reclaim their power, rebuild their lives, and rise on their own terms. I am deeply committed to their journey, supporting them every step of the way as they become the best version of themselves.
Taking the first step towards healing can be tough, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to listen, support, and help you navigate life’s challenges. Reach out today—your well-being matters, and I’m ready to walk with you on your journey.
