I’m a Clinical Mental Health Counselor specializing in addiction, trauma and grief and loss. I decided to go into this field after personally struggling with substance addiction and the loss of my father at a young age. My goal as a therapist is to help others feel heard and cared about in a non judgmental setting while they find their way to who they want to be.
The majority of my career has been spent working with teens in inpatient programs and then I transitioned to helping adults in an addiction recovery center. Because of my experiences and specialties, I decided to do additional training to help therapy be more effective. I am certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Brain Spotting, and SMART Recovery.
Using the experience I’ve gained with the things I’ve been through, the additional training I’ve received, and my gift of empathy and understanding, I know that together we can work through whatever you’re struggling with.
