My favorite part of being a therapist is helping my clients to focus on their values and to make positive changes towards self-actualization. In becoming a therapist, I wanted to feel I was contributing to my community in a positive way. In Graduate school, I worked at the Cancer Support Community, which helped fuel my passion for the work I do with my clients. 

When I’m not working, I love spending time with my two daughters, my friends, and family. I also love to travel.
