Get To Know Me
What was your path to becoming a therapist? What inspired you to choose this profession?
My journey to becoming a therapist began while working in special education. I was inspired by students who worked hard to overcome their challenges and build on their strengths to succeed. I take that past with me to my current work with clients to boost their strengths and build healthy coping tools. I have found that my approach works best for adults and children in transition or needing help to manage the stresses of daily life. I work best with clients who are motivated to build skills and healthy coping tools for a lifetime. I am here to help you build a balanced life.
