About My Clients
I specialize in working with people who experience psychosis, mania, substance use concerns, as well as more general navigation of change and transitions in life. I come from a background in Recovery Oriented Mental Health Care which focuses less on symptoms and more on identifying passions, goals, and engagement in chosen communities. Hope is the foundation of recovery and something that I aim to provide to everyone I work with. I want to work with you towards wellness.
My Background and Approach
With over a decade of experience working with the Department of Veterans Affairs, I’ve supported people living with serious mental illness, substance use, and those exploring areas of self-identity. My work has spanned both individual and group therapy, including inpatient, outpatient, and community integration work. I was the Early Psychosis Intervention Coordinator for the site and this is a particular interest of mine. I am someone dedicated to the idea that we are all in recovery and that we all deserve to challenge the stigma around mental health. I practice with openness and compassion.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Therapy with me is collaborative, goal focused, non-stigmatizing, with an emphasis on facing fears as well as symptoms. I believe everyone deserves to live a value driven life and should have the freedom to explore what that means.
