I started my college career with an Associate’s in Liberal Arts at Metropolitan Community College and transferred to Bellevue University where I received my undergraduate degree in Behavioral Science. I eventually went on to get a Master’s in Clinical Counseling. While in my graduate program, I did internships at Sienna Francis, Immanuel’s Intensive Outpatient Program, and the Women’s Center for Advancement. The varied experience ignited a passion in me to work with many different populations. 

 

Since graduating I have worked with adolescents with trauma and varying ages and genders who have eating disorders. The main modality I used to conduct therapy with these populations was Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but as a therapist I view myself as eclectic. I like to pull from varying models and cater my approach to the individual and their needs. 

 

I do not have a specific preferred population per se. I just have an overwhelming love for conducting therapy and providing help. I do enjoy challenging myself and would like to work with those who have SPMIs.
