EXPERIENCE
After graduating from my master's program in 2014, I worked for several years with high-risk children, adolescents, and families in community-based outreach therapy, meeting clients where they were at, in their homes and in their schools. I have also worked with adults in individual outpatient therapy, as well as adults with intellectual disabilities.
After some time away, I've returned to the counseling field to support children, adolescents, and families in navigating school, friends, relationships, family problems, and today's world. My approach to counseling is tailored to each individual person I meet, since every person and experience is unique. I make it a point to understand and support the full person and not just the problem.
