About

Hello, I am a Mental health Clinician looking to be of service where my skills can be most useful. Throughout my career thus far, I’ve encountered a plethora of disorders; emotionally difficult situations, and hardships. If nothing else, I recognize how difficult, beautiful, and nuanced the human experience can be. My experience and specialties have been: addiction, abuse, and its recovery, including physical, emotional, and social, PTSD, self-esteem, and personality disorders. I’ve spent significant time utilizing my services with military populations, disordered substance use, and emotional management issues -such as anger, grief, and shame, anxiety, and depression. My most recent specialty has focused on minority identities and the effects of what it means to navigate society in our current social climate. If you are an individual, couple, or family that has experienced struggles or simply wants a more grounded existence, please seek professional partnership. I would love to be of assistance. I am proficient and trained in CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Humanistic and Behavioral Approaches as well as others. Regardless of where you land in your journey toward self-improvement, I wish you all the best!
