Description
I am a Licensed Social Worker with an extensive background in education and human services. My passion for helping others has guided my diverse career in counseling, where I have held various positions aimed at supporting adults, teens, & families in need.
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with a wide range of specialty populations, including at-risk students, women's issues, teens, families, and those struggling with substance use. My experiences in mental health span multiple settings—such as inpatient facilities, schools, universities, in-home therapy, prisons, and outpatient clinics—allowing me to develop a holistic perspective on mental health and well-being.
My philosophy is grounded in meeting individuals at their current stage, understanding their unique circumstances, and building a strong therapeutic relationship. My clinical approach combines empathy, advocacy, and evidence-based practices to empower individuals on their journey towards healing and growth.
I am committed to fostering a supportive and safe environment where individuals can explore their thoughts, process emotions, set goals, and work towards meaningful change to live their best life!
