As a licensed social worker and mental health professional who identifies as part of the LGBTQ+ community, I bring extensive experience in substance use treatment, community mental health, and outpatient therapy services. My clinical expertise spans multiple treatment settings, where I’ve helped adults navigate challenges including substance use disorders, ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and various life stressors. Drawing from my background as a university instructor in addiction studies and my work as a drug and alcohol counselor, I bring a comprehensive understanding to helping clients achieve their wellness goals.

I believe in taking a holistic approach to therapy, recognizing that mental health is interconnected with all aspects of a person’s life. My style combines deep empathy with thoughtful directness – while creating a supportive environment, I’m also willing to provide candid feedback when it serves my clients’ growth and goals.

In addition to my clinical practice, I serve as a professional supervisor for Social Workers, supporting the next generation of mental health practitioners. My integrated approach combines academic knowledge with practical experience, allowing me to provide effective, evidence-based care tailored to each client’s unique needs.
