My Background

​

My professional experiences have shaped me as a counselor in a variety of ways. Time spent working in residential substance use disorder treatment gave me the opportunity to counsel clients on their journey towards sobriety. This experience also allowed me to focus attention counseling the families of residents and their unique experiences with a loved one in treatment. This crisis intervention work in a family therapy environment guided me towards my next professional role in holistic and integrative therapy work.

​

Working in an integrative medicine setting has provided me with the benefits of holistic care in the treatment planning process. Using a variety of modalities, from psychiatric medications, supplement management, to the integration of a mindfulness practice I received a well-rounded view of mental health therapy. My professional experiences have given me valuable training in both the public, private, and nonprofit sector while addressing a broad variety of clinical needs throughout the therapeutic process.
