About me
I earned my undergraduate and graduate degrees at Anna Maria College. First earning my Masters in Counseling Psychology in 2005. I went on to obtain my CAGS in Counseling Psychology and I currently hold a LADC I, Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor I (also pending LMHC board approval). I have worked in a variety of settings with all ages, including inpatient adult mental health, inpatient children’s mental health, outpatient, long term residential and community based living. My expertise is in trauma, behavioral and anxiety related work. I pride myself on out of the box thinking for every patient I am working with to try and create the best possible avenues for empathic healing.
Our lifelong passion is to help individuals in need including children, adults, couples and families, to navigate complex behavioral health and relational concerns in our outpatient setting.
We work collaboratively with you to develop the most effective trauma informed care plan to help motivate and sustain long lasting change.
We use a combination of mindfulness techniques, motivational interviewing, and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) to provide a stable platform for healing and recovery.
With over 20 years experience working with individuals in need, we have the expertise you need to help you on your journey though care.
