Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, VOIC-S Program Coordinator
“I see individuals who are experiencing anxiety and/or depressive symptoms, problems in relationships, using substances as a way to cope, and are finding day to day life challenging. I help my clients to better understand what they are experiencing, identify what they want to change, and implement steps to making the changes they seek. I believe in the inner strength, resilience, and agency of each person.
I came to the mental health field in 2018, after enjoying a 21 year career in law enforcement. I am particularly interested in and seek to help persons who have been impacted by victimization and trauma. I collaborate with my clients using primarily cognitive and solution focused approaches. It is a pleasure for me to assist my clients in finding greater life satisfaction.”
