Education & Experience
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Clinical Addictions Specialist Associate, I believe that effective therapy combines genuine human connection with evidence-based practices. I create a warm, supportive environment where you can feel truly seen and understood. My extensive training in EMDR therapy, Trauma Informed Care, and Psychological First Aid allows me to offer specialized support for trauma healing. Understanding that mental health is part of overall wellness, I've also completed certification in Integrated Behavioral Health and Primary Care, enabling me to engage with both emotional and physical aspects of well-being. I continuously enhance my therapeutic toolkit through advanced training and certification, allowing me to personalize our work together. My goal is simple: to provide you with expert, compassionate support on your journey toward healing and growth.
