Thanks for visiting my page. I graduated with my Masters of Social work May 2024 from Ohio State University. I completed my of Social Work/Bachelor of Science May 2023 at Ohio University. January 2024 I began my Doctorate of Social Work at the University of Kentucky. I work with diverse populations of clients including men, women, and teens for depression, anxiety, and trauma. A dedicated U.S. Army Veteran and Licensed Social Worker, I bring a unique blend of military experience, clinical expertise, and a profound commitment to advancing mental health care for those who serve. Specializing in military mental health and Complex PTSD (C-PTSD), my work is grounded in trauma-informed practices, evidence-based interventions, and a passion for fostering resilience and recovery. I am driven to create meaningful change in the lives of individuals, families, and communities through compassionate care, accountability, and holistic healing. As a doctoral student in Military Behavioral Health, I bring both clinical training and lived experience to this work. Although therapy can be challenging I still like to bring my sense of humor.
