With over 12 years of experience in the field of psychology and mental health, my journey has led me through diverse and challenging settings, ultimately shaping me into the therapist I am today. My career began in inpatient treatment facilities, where I gained invaluable insights into the complex interplay of substance abuse and mental health disorders. Witnessing the resilience and strength of those facing such challenges inspired me to delve deeper into the realm of psychology and trauma therapy.
