Experience

I am a clinically licensed therapist in Missouri and Illinois with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals and families in various roles within the mental health field. My work has included case management, school-based behavioral intervention, and providing care in both outpatient and intensive outpatient clinics. These roles have shaped my understanding of the many ways healing can unfold and the unique strengths each person carries. Today, I bring that experience into the therapy room by offering a compassionate, culturally responsive space where clients feel safe, valued, and seen.
