Wanting to help others has been a long-standing passion. In 2008 I was able to begin to actualize that passion and began my undergraduate in psychology and followed by a master's in social work. I am a very positive and optimistic person who balances the line between intuitive and logical, emotional and intellectual. I believe this is a great position to have as a therapist.
