Work HistoryMy work history has largely been rooted in helping clients in the healthcare setting who are adjusting to both acute and chronic challenges in their lives. I have worked for almost 20 years in the healthcare environment providing psychotherapy to patients and their families as they navigate difficult decisions and evaluate personal change to promote longterm wellness. In this setting, I provide counseling and client-centered support for individuals involved directly or indirectly with crisis, depression, anxiety, communication issues, relationship issues and infidelity.
