I have worked for nearly 20 years with various human and social services programs. I have worked for programs focused on those with developmental disabilities, those needing supported employment, and those needing housing, and outpatient mental health services. Working with various human services populations has allowed me to work with diverse people.
I am well versed in several counseling techniques and have compassion for being a service to others. My counseling skills are unique in nature, often taking a person-centered counseling approach to meet the client where they are to build the therapeutic relationship quickly.
