“I work with people who have stress, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and difficulties with life transitions.”

What was your path to becoming a [provider type based on licensure]?

My path to becoming a therapist was not a straight line; while I’ve known I wanted to be a therapist since high school, I did not take this path right away. It was not until I was a mother that I decided to explore my passion for helping people in the mental health field. I began volunteering at a local mental health agency while I attended college. Once I graduated with my master’s degree, I continued at the same agency as a crisis worker before being promoted to crisis program manager. I managed supervisors, therapists, case managers, and support staff. While I was indirectly helping clients by managing my amazing team, I wanted to work directly with clients. I left my management position to pursue my dream of being in private practice where I could work directly with clients.

What should someone know about working with you?

I also take law and ethics courses as well as cultural competency trainin
