Education
Utah State University, Doctorate of Philosophy, Combined Clinical/Counseling/School, 2013 — I am authorized through Psypact to practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology in 42 states. This means you do not have to be in Ohio to be see seen by me, provided you are in one of the approved 42 states.
Work HistoryMy life experiences and professional endeavors have taken me to various settings. From NYC to Philadelphia to Utah, Michigan, and Ohio, I’ve had opportunities to work a wide range of people from all sorts of backgrounds. Such experiences rendered me the ability to understand and appreciate different perspectives and have made my life more memorable and meaningful.
