With support from many, I survived growing up in an impoverished, inner-city community. I understand the perils the youth and families in these environments face and the overwhelming impact traumatic experiences can have on their lives. Negative experiences become minimized, tragedies are normalized; and as their debilitating effects increase, so does the need for mental health approaches designed to help this population properly overcome life’s many stressors. I created I.C.U. Counseling and Mental Health Support Services with a goal of reaching those that may feel neglected or helpless and providing them with the tools of success.

Having worked in a variety of settings, including 15 years in wilderness therapy, I've found that there is something wonderfully inviting about working together in quiet outside spaces (or utilizing teletherapy in these times of Covid-19). Optimally I help clients utilize their individual strength, values and insight to help find a more peaceful state of mind and lifestyle. As human beings we are meant to build meaningful connections, and sadly there are an overwhelming number of deterrents to building those relationships with self, others, community, etc. We can and will tackle those difficulties together.
