About
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C, LICSW) with over 25 years of experience helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges. My journey in service began with four years in the Marine Corps, where I developed discipline, resilience, and a deep dedication to helping others. I work with individuals and couples who are facing life’s toughest challenges—whether you’re a veteran adjusting to civilian life, an individual struggling with trauma, depression, or addiction, or a couple looking to strengthen communication. You may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about the next steps, but I am here to help. I believe mental health is a shared responsibility between client and therapist—requiring collaboration, commitment, and an open mind. My approach is compassionate, direct, and solution-focused, creating a safe space where you can explore your challenges and work toward meaningful change.
