Clinic Director

I am the Clinic Director of our Bridgeport clinic. My ideal client is someone who wants to discover a better version of themself. They are someone who is truly better committed to the therapeutic process. They understand that the therapeutic journey is not an easy one, but is very rewarding. They understand that their past does not define them. They know that I may not be the therapist that takes them to the finish line of their treatment, but is excited for me to be a part of their journey.

I have been working with individuals, children, teens, and families for thirteen years in a variety of roles. The last five of my career, I have been a clinical therapist. I truly care about each person who steps into my office and honor their autonomy. I have extensive training and knowledge in trauma, grief, depression, and anxiety. I also have also extensive experience writing letters to the courts and testifying on behalf of children. I truly want to help individuals, of all backgrounds, learn who they are and help them realize their true potential. I offer a very honest and nurturing approach to therapy. I want each person who comes into my office to feel better than when they came.

Not only do I use my knowledge of mental health, but also the research and data of methods to help. There is not a technique that we will not discuss that I have not used myself or have done extensive research on. I truly love helping others be their own advocate. I allow my client’s to lead their own therapy. If there are days where they just want to vent that is fine. If there are days where they want structure, that is fine as well. When I am not helping others, I can be found spending time with my two dogs, four cats, and my spouse. I love to workout and travel. I am big on video games, music, and art. I love life and experiencing what it has to offer.
