Introduction

I began working in the mental health field after a brief stint as a guard at a juvenile detention center. While hoping it would lead to a law enforcement career, it lead to me recognizing my strengths lay in building relationships with people who are struggling, misunderstood, and seeking more from life. After grad school I worked for six years in the school setting and also honed my clinical skills working at a private practice with mostly teens and college students. The approach I take is unique to the individual, usually incorporating CBT, psychodynamic work, mindfulness, and EMDR.
