About

Adulting is Weird. Let's Talk About It...

Life is a beautiful, chaotic mess, and sometimes the path forward isn't clear. My goal isn't to hand you a generic map; it's to help you find your own compass. With over 25 years of experience in the mental health and SPMI fields—beginning my journey in group homes in 2001—I bring a deep, seasoned perspective to both clinical therapy and supervision. I believe true healing happens when we honor all parts of ourselves—the light, the shadow, and the wonderfully weird bits in between. Beyond individual therapy, I am a dedicated ARMHS Clinical Supervisor and trainer, helping agencies navigate the complexities of 245I compliance and quality care. If you are an adult (18+) ready to do the deep and rewarding work of understanding yourself, or an agency seeking expert supervision, I invite you to connect.
