I approach life with curiosity and a sense of purpose. I have worked in the mental health field for the last 8 years from nonprofit organizations, outpatient substance abuse facilities, crisis on call agencies and the judicial system. Prior to my experience as a marriage and family therapist, I was a stand up comic. I try to bring humor into the room whenever possible as I believe laughter is the best medicine.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I create a light hearted environment, therapy does not always have to be serious, too often therapist create a space that is stuffy and where nothing grows. Therapy can be fun, my clients can expect an opportunity for growth and advancement when working with me.
