I have been a licensed clinical social worker for over 30 years bringing broad experience and perspective to my sessions. I believe that joining with a client is paramount to establishing trust. Trusting that your provider cares for you, has your best interest at heart and provides you with reasonable and doable solutions is key to growth. If we don’t connect, no harm/no foul. We agree to move on and I will assist with that process, if necessary.

Being told I "talk too much" in grade school has really worked out for me. I have 15 + years of experience working with diverse populations. Those populations include: homeless persons, LGBTQ+, those with chemical dependency, those living with HIV/AIDS, adolescents, college students, incarcerated persons, and senior adults. My experience and education has afforded me the opportunity to provide psychotherapy (which includes teletherapy), group therapy, consultation, and outreach services. I received my Masters in Mental Health Counseling through Capella University. I am dedicated to diversity, inclusion, and equity.

I understand that attending therapy can feel intimidating and overwhelming, and frequently, the most difficult aspect of the entire process is simply taking the initial step to begin.
