Hello! I am deeply committed to treating each individual with respect, kindness, and dignity. I believe in actively listening to my clients' concerns and needs, and I work collaboratively with them to establish realistic, achievable goals. With a Master’s degree in Social Work, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a clinical Substance Abuse Counselor with over 20 years of experience.

Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working in various settings, including residential, correctional, Medication Assisted Treatment, and outpatient therapy, serving clients of all ages.

I’m here to support you on your journey to healing and growth.
