Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have worked as a Therapist for the past 21 years. I received my Masters from Arizona State University 2003. I have worked with the military population, civilians and families since 2006. I also have vast experience with virtual and in person therapy with the civilian adult population, addressing and treating a variety of common, daily life struggles.
In our first session together, we'll begin with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help us to collaboratively create a tailored plan for us to work through so you can begin living your best life.
Despite having worked with a variety of clients over the past 20 years, I always feel it is a privilege to be invited to walk alongside of you as you lean toward living your best life.

Val reminded me of my mother with her beautiful platinum hair and with the experiences with working with military client I felt she would have a better understanding of my life.
