I am grateful for the privilege of walking alongside so many on their mental health journeys since the late ’80s. Over the years, I’ve worked as a community mental health counselor, inpatient case manager, social worker in home health and hospice care, and administrator for older adult services. In 2006, I opened a private psychotherapy practice specializing in perinatal mental health and nurtured it until 2020. For more than 17 years, I’ve also had the joy of teaching future social workers, helping shape the next generation of compassionate practitioners.
Through all these experiences, my clients have taught me this: techniques and strategies matter, but the heart of the work is the relationship. Healing happens in the space where trust and connection grow. If you’re an adult navigating life’s twists and turns and wondering what’s next, I’d be honored to walk with you. Together, we’ll explore challenges, celebrate your strengths, and stay curious about the perspectives that shape your story.
