Get to Know Me

Why did you become a mental health professional?

I'm passionate about supporting personal growth, healing, and self-awareness.

What are your interests outside of work?

I love the outdoors, reading, staying active, and spending time with family, friends and my dogs!

What book have you read more than once?

Severe Mercy because it captures the power of love and the profound nature of grief and loss.

Favorite organization/non-profit?

Sea Legacy—I am inspired by the work they due to support awareness and preservation of the Arctic.

Do you have any pets?

I have two dogs! I set a cupcake on my table (bright pink frosting) so I wouldn’t forget to bring it to work for my colleague's Birthday, and when I came back to the kitchen, after showering, there was a bite out of the top of the cupcake. When I looked around in an attempt to figure out what had happened, I saw my French Bulldog, Lucy, sleeping on the couch with bright pink frosting all over her face!
