Professional Experience

I am a devoted and caring clinician who is genuinely passionate about assisting individuals on their journey through life's challenges. As a LPC, I bring a fresh perspective and a sincere dedication to offering personalized care. In addition to being armed with a double Master's degree, my solid academic foundation and diverse skill set enable me to address a range of mental health concerns. I am trained as a therapeutic game master and pursuing continued learning in the realm of Geek Therapeutics. I continue to seek out therapeutic methods that are geared towards meeting people where they are and joining their quest as support and guide towards their goals.

My professional path has given me invaluable experience in crisis intervention at a community mental health clinic. This role has deepened my understanding of the immediate needs and complexities individuals face during crises. I approach each situation with empathy, sensitivity, and a collaborative spirit, aiming to create a safe and supportive space for clients to explore and process their experiences.

One of the most fulfilling aspects of my work is witnessing the transformative power of change in my clients. I derive immense joy from those moments when individuals recognize their own growth and the positive shifts they are making in their lives. It is genuinely gratifying to be a part of their journey toward self-discovery and empowerment.

In my therapeutic practice, I draw upon evidence-based modalities, to include Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems, and have an eclectic approach that allows for individualized therapy specific to each person’s needs. I also enjoy Group Therapy utilizing Therapeutic Table-top Role Playing Games to build skills and assist in client healing.

I am committed to fostering a collaborative and empathetic therapeutic relationship with my clients, recognizing the inherent strength and resilience within each individual. Together, we can work towards achieving your goals and fostering positive change in your life. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to support you on your journey of self-discovery and personal growth.
