Throughout my career, I have worked with hundreds of people of all ages and backgrounds who were exposed to a wide variety of traumatizing experiences. I have over twenty years of experience in medicine including as a Critical Care Paramedic working on ambulances, in Emergency Departments, in an ICU and a Pediatric ICU. I am truly blessed to be called to help heal people using my medical experience and my more than two years of mental health experience in the Community Mental Health world.
I have extensive experience with several interventions including CBT, TF-CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Family Systems theory, Solution Focused interventions, and many more. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you to find the best solutions to overcome any obstacles you may face.
Thank you for spending some of your precious time to read a bit about me. I cannot wait to become part of your mental healthcare team
