Get to Know Me

Why did you become a mental health professional?

I've always had compassion for people and enjoy helping others to grow to their full potential.

What are your interests outside of work?

My family, dogs, and reading.

What is one thing you do daily that supports your well-being?

Play with my dogs.

How do you recharge?

Drink a cup of tea and hang out with my husband and two dogs.

Do you have any pets?

I have two dogs. My favorite story is one of my dogs was asleep on the sofa and I set my Tea down and left the room for a moment. When I returned to the room my dog was asleep in the same place, but 1/3 of my drink was gone. I lifted up her little chin and sure enough, she had tea on it. She pretended to be asleep the entire time!
