About
My journey into the counseling field began as a school resource officer in a high school, where I witnessed firsthand the profound impact a counselor can have on a student’s self-perception and overall well-being. This experience ignited my passion for mental health and my desire to make a lasting difference in the lives of those seeking support. My path was further shaped by my background as a former police officer, military veteran, and school counselor, where I saw the far-reaching effects of trauma—whether from a single distressing event or the cumulative toll of ongoing stress.
