For over a quarter-century, I have dedicated my career to empowering children, adolescents, and adults to rise above mental health challenges, psychoactive substance use, and co-occurring disorders. My practice is rooted in the conviction that every individual holds the innate strength to heal, and my role is to illuminate that path with expertise, creativity, and unwavering compassion.
Why Partner with Me? • 26 Years of Advocacy: A proven track record of turning struggles into strengths across diverse populations. • Collaborative Healing: Partnering with clients to rewrite narratives of limitation into stories of empowerment.

In my practice, I often adopt an eclectic approach to therapy, allowing me to tailor interventions to meet the unique needs of each individual. I incorporate psychoeducation through various methods, including audio tracks, videos, articles, worksheets, and interactive exercises.
