About Me
Experience & Approach Matter
As a Licensed Clinical Marriage & Family Therapist, I have extensive experience in private practice in both Kansas and the Bay Area. I look forward to providing a safe, collaborative and compassionate environment that is supportive and focused on your mental health, trauma & substance use need! This includes deeply listening to, understanding and making the changes important to you, developing a path forward using standards-based approaches and strategies that work
I specialize in Trauma-Informed Therapy, CBT, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Harm Reduction and Motivational Interviewing, Psychosynthesis and Mindfulness-Based Therapy. All my approaches are resilience and strengths-based, culturally-responsive and inclusive.
My experience as a Clinical Executive in Mental Health programs including licensed for-profit residential substance treatment use centers, licensed non-profit substance use residential treatment programs and community-based treatment centers in both Kansas and the Bay Area provide you with different perspectives and opportunities for change! My work in both community-based programs throughout the Bay Area and Kansas have also included working with a wide range of culturally diverse individuals, couples and families.
As a past Adjunct Professor at the University of San Francisco, I taught Addiction Counseling Studies in the MA/MFT Psychology Program. As the developer of The Recovery Redefined Roadmap©, this positive and collaborative approach is focused on your own rapid recovery & growth!
