I have been working in the field for 25+ years in various capacities from IDD/Autism, clinics, in and out patient, LGBTQ, Correctional Facility Drug Program, men and adolescent re-entry, brushing with some gang activity. Whats was common was: NO PLAN; there should to be a plan. People have to be honest with themself. When being assessed be honest; fabricating the truth; the cycle continues; being honest; the healing begins. It's not easy, but necessary. A plan built on truth and commitment, support. One of my clients once told me "You know your firm; but your fair." I've held that for 25+ years.

Have you ever found yourself feeling isolated, afraid to share your thoughts and experiences with others? Are you afraid of how your truth will be received; you may be concerned about stigma related to emotional and behavioral challenges or fearful that no one else can possibly understand your experiences. In my years of practice I have discovered that individuals can experience relief in finding someone with whom they trust to share their story, and can be empowered by doing so. It is my mission to offer each individual that I encounter a safe, comfortable and nonjudgmental environment to explore their experiences.

My ideal client is someone who may have been hesitant about starting therapy, but has decided to take a chance. I want to remove the negative stigma attached to therapy and support my clients on their journey to growth and healing. I am passionate about helping clients find ways to process their emotions and learns ways to handle everyday stress. I tend to gravitate towards clients dealing with past trauma, depression, anxiety and grief. I want people to feel empowered and realize their current struggles don't define them. I want to bring out the best in my clients and encourage them to not be afraid of their feelings.

I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate and a licensed Substance Abuse Counselor. I graduated from Walden University. And I have several years of experience working with people of all ages dealing with substance abuse and mental health issues. Over the past few years, I have worked in multiple settings, outpatient mental health facilities, substance abuse treatment centers, and county-based programs. I know how difficult it is to deal with such issues. My goal is to offer a safe and compassionate environment to all my patients so they can put forward their worries and feelings without fearing being judged.

If you or your teenager can answer yes to ANY of these questions, let's schedule a time to meet conveniently online: Feeling hopeless or like things aren't going to get better? Having difficulty speaking up for yourself or communicating with others? Having a hard time adjusting to change? Do you wish you had a clear plan towards reaching your goals? Are you in an open, poly, or non-monogamous relationship? Do you have negative thoughts about yourself or struggle with low self-esteem? Are you starting to use alcohol or drugs to cope with your problems and worried it may be getting out of control?

Life is complex, and I find life's complexity to be its greatest asset and largest stressor. Often, feeling stuck in our lives and circumstances can lead us into a cycle of unhappiness and stagnation that feels impossible to break. However, therapy can be a great way to interrupt that cycle and begin living the life we want and envision for ourselves.

I am currently accepting new Telehealth clients! - Any number of barriers could impede peak performance. Anxiety, burnout, injury, external pressures, and trauma are but a few of the challenges my clients regularly face. Any one of these factors can lead to feelings of disappointment, dissatisfaction, and/or diminished self-esteem. Sometimes, my clients are unaware of the underlying mechanisms contributing to performance breakdown, distress, or loss of enjoyment in sport/performance. This can lead to maladaptive behaviors and beliefs that perpetuate a debilitative cycle.
