I graduated from The University of Saint Francis Summa Cum Laude with a Masters in Social Work. I specialize in Trauma with my Licensed in Domestic Violence, Certifications in Sexual assault, Perinatal Mental Health, and DCFS. I’ve worked with individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, Domestic Violence victims, Grief and Anger management, PTSD, couples, Families, And Reunification with the courts.

In practice, I create a safe space by utilizing a client centered approach to therapy. My tools are integrative and combines elements of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Trauma & LGBTQ+ informed care, and multicultural theory. Ensuring that a client’s voice is always heard by applying Empowerment Theory during sessions assists the client to find the strength they need to achieve the greatest positive change.

 I have enjoyed working in a variety of settings in the mental health field focused on serving the needs of adults, adolescents and pre-teens. My experience has allowed me to treat individuals and couples with a variety of presenting issues. I strive to provide cultural, religious, and sexual sensitivity in a judgement free space, and to interventions, without unrealistic expectations.
