I am currently pursuing a PhD in Social work at Sacred Heart University. I have spent the majority of my career working in various college counseling centers, with adults of all ages and concerns of all types. I have been part of multiple eating disorder consultation teams within these universities. I have also worked in community mental health, and practices/agencies specializing in working with neurodiverse individuals.
