About me

I am a licensed Marriage and Family therapist and Licensed Professional Clinical counselor. I have worked treating trauma, depression, anxiety, PTS, mood disorders, adjustment disorders and other mental illnesses. I have facilitated child abuse intervention groups for child abuse perpetrators. I also enjoy facilitating coparenting groups for adults who are going through divorce or separation to shield children from conflict.
