I have over 25 years of professional experience in addition to having a dual degree in Mental Health Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy. I have been one who always believed that you never stop learning. I am humbled by my vast interactions with both individuals, and or couples who have allowed me to learn and grow as a person from them. This is what separates me from my colleagues. My training is derived from not only you but gaining valuable experience by working in Hospital Emergency Rooms, Inpatient Psychiatric Hospitals for Both Children & Adults, Substance Abuse -Dependency Clinics, Correction Mental Health as well as Alzheimer's-Dementia and Nursing Home Facilities. In addition, working in Private. Practice. I am extremely comfortable working with people of all ages, genders and ethnicities.

I believe mental health care should be personalized to the person, not just focused on a diagnosis. I work with adults and older adults experiencing concerns such as anxiety, ADHD, depression, OCD, bipolar disorder, and PTSD. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable being honest about what you’re experiencing. I take time to understand your symptoms, your experiences, and what you want to improve so we can build a treatment plan that fits your needs and goals.
