I am a new clinician with over 30 years of mental health experience. I have worked on a crisis hotline, doing home based treatment, partial hospital, and in three inpatient hospitals. I started working with children as a teacher and switched to mental health because my love was always helping people with making positive changes in their lives. I worked with families, adolescents, and then adults at Butler Hospital. I recently took a position at Brightside Behavioral Health as a clinician. I truly enjoy being a part of the therapeutic process, providing a supportive, caring, non-judgmental setting where growth can occur.
I have worked with every age group, and I have had the opportunity to work with every mental heath issue from depression to psychosis, and everything in between. I enjoy working with couples and I am experienced in mediation and deescalation. I love working with every age group and I hope that I can help to bring positive change to your lives.
I hope to provide a peaceful, encouraging, supportive place for you to be able to experience, and achieve the personal growth that you have been searching for. I hope to be the empathetic ear that you need, and I am hoping to guide you to self discovery. I plan to incorporate all of my experience to give you the best possible level of care that you can get.
