Therapy style
Having worked with various populations including the chronically mentally ill, families in child welfare teens/adults, and families within residential treatment settings I have experienced how the power of communication can heal even the most distant of relationships. I strive to use my knowledge and experience to help others improve their quality of life. I am a champion for purposeful meaningful relationships. I believe we all have a responsibility to choose how we communicate and behave in those relationships.
