Change is possible. I have over 20 years of experience working with clients seeking change. In particular, my focus has been on anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and LGBTQ+ challenges. Successful change most often comes from working with a supportive, highly trained guide. My passion is to provide that for clients. No two clients are the same, and no two sets of challenges are the same. My well of expertise comes from working in acute, outpatient, and residential settings. Additionally, I have specialized training in LGBTQ+ specific challenges.
