About

I am licensed independent social worker in the state of Ohio with a supervisory designation (LISW-S). I began working with the severe and mentally ill population within a homeless shelter at age 21. I discovered a love for helping and decided to pursue a career as a clinical psychotherapist. I obtained a degree from the University of Toledo with Master of Social Work, specializing in clinical mental health and a minor in psychology. Throughout the years I have gained experience working in a variety of setting addressing mental health. The settings include dialysis clinics, military, chronic homelessness, and corrections. Rather you are struggling with a new onset of neurosis, or your long-term symptoms have begun to exacerbate; I will ensure there is a safe space to discuss any problems in a judgement free zone utilizing individualized specific treatment plans, not simple advice. I will utilize a variety of approaches to empower you with tools needed to take significant life steps. Ultimately, to reach a goal you desire.
