I have been active as a professional in the behavioral health field for over a decade

in residential, outpatient, inpatient rehabilitation, MAT therapy and medical

settings. I work with people to overcome struggles in life through individual and

group therapy focused on meeting clients where they are at. My focus is on

building rapport using a person-centered approach through empathy, genuineness,

and unconditional positive regard. I am a Licensed Independent Addiction

Counselor (LIAC) sharing my own lived experience with overcoming addiction

combined with a spiritual approach to assisting others develop their own self-

efficacy for positive change through improving connections with others and

overcoming maladaptive thinking to improve confidence. My clinical career

started in community behavioral and mental health, learning how to treat addiction,

trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues and a strong specialization in

overcoming trauma and addiction.
