My work in the residential setting includes providing trauma treatment for individuals that have endured the pain of childhood abuse and exposure to community violence.

    My professional experience also includes providing supervision for mental health professionals in the individual and group setting. I strongly believe in the power of human relationships, connection, and emotional growth. I am a client- centered therapist, meaning, I believe that treatment is focused on you and that you are capable of discovering the answers that you have been looking for. For me, it is critical that thorough, quality care is provided. Therefore, I also seek to explore your past experiences, and earlier attachment as themes from the past have the power to affect our current behaviors and relationships. It is my belief that regardless of what your current stressors are , or have been, you are capable of reaching your emotional potential, obtaining balance, wellness, and happiness.
