Providing psychotherapy has been my life's mission to assist people with healing! After the untimely murder of my high school friend by other students at our high school, I became trained as a peer counselor to assist my fellow classmates in their healing.
Since then, I have gained 25 years of clinical experience to include advanced evidence-based training in trauma recovery, grief and loss, perinatal mental health, and suicide prevention/intervention from world renowned experts in these specializations.
Providing psychotherapy and casemanagement services over the years to myriad populations have enhanced my clinical skills. These populations include working with children/adolescents in schools, homes, and military child development centers and after-school programs, adolescent sex offenders at a residential treatment facility, working with adults in jail, homes, community mental health centers, hospitals, and a nursing home.
I have owned and operated my medical private practice for the last eight years, beginning as a traveling licensed psychotherapist, to running a brick-and-mortar practice where I provided both psychotherapy and massage (I am also a Licensed Massage Therapist), to currently providing telehealth services only.
This diverse experience allows me to assist you with recovery from just about any struggle you are facing!
When I am not providing psychotherapy services, I enjoy writing my sci-fi novel (which will be published soon). I also enjoy international travel, art museums, live theatre, sunrises and sunsets on the beach, weekly yoga and guided meditation sessions, comedy shows, dancing, reading about science/health, history, and trauma, writing poetry, and spending time with family/friends.
I am so excited to begin working with you!
