I have a Bachelors in Social Work from Indiana University Northwest, and an Associate Degree/Addictions Studies Certificate from Ivy Tech. I really enjoy working with clients of all ages and have worked with children as young as 3. I look forward to working with you in the future.
I like using strength based techniques with my clients along with Acceptance and Commitment therapy techniques.
