I entered the field of mental health after a career in the business world spending 7 years as a Human Resources employee. This was an opportunity to learn about the many personalities in the world of finance which led me to explore another world - that of psychotherapy. I have been working in this field for over 25 years learning much about the human soul (there was a lot to learn) and can say I have grown along with the human souls with whom I work.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over twenty years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I have always loved helping others. My passion for working with people in their 20s and 30s stems from years of working with children and adolescents in schools.

Previous clients describe me as very kind, empathetic, non-judgmental, and caring. Counseling is in my blood, it's all I have ever done and I feel as passionate about it today as I did when I started.
