About Me

I have a passion for using creative and effective interventions to help individuals and families heal trauma, embrace neurodiversity, and deepen attuned relationships. I am also skilled and passionate about working with First Responder families who are often left unsupported as they manage trauma and occupational stress which affects all members of their families.

I have been working with children, families, and individuals in crisis for over 9 years and have specialized knowledge in working with First Responders, Neurodivergent clients, and parents of young children who themselves are healing from generational trauma and stress.

Education & Experience

I graduated with my BSW from the University of Pittsburgh in 2017 and my MSW in 2020. I have experience working in child welfare, child abuse prevention, school based mental health and crisis co-response in partnership with First responders.
