Greetings prospective client, I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have experience working in both inpatient medical and psychiatric settings.

I also believe in the importance of healthy living, as the mind relies on the body for good health and vice versa. In addition, I have a sports medicine background with a focus on behavioral change and empowering clients to take a whole-body approach to their health.
