Working to assist individuals in finding their solutions in a time sensitive approach.

I have worked across a range of clinical settings, including outpatient, residential, and crisis-oriented services. My experience includes working with individuals facing trauma, serious mental health concerns, and co-occurring substance use disorders. I have supported clients at different stages of change and in high-acuity situations, which has shaped a calm, practical, and grounded approach to treatment focused on safety, stability, and long-term growth.
