What made you choose a healthcare career?
I chose social work because it is my passion to help others feel valued, empowered and capable of reaching their full potential. The training that I have received has allowed me the opportunity to work with like-minded individuals who are committed to enhancing the wellbeing and quality of life of those who are impacted by social disadvantages.

What types of care do you provide, and what sets your care apart?
I provide outpatient mental health services for individuals ages 18+ at our 22nd Avenue and Silver Lake locations. I believe in providing a personalized approach to treatment for each individual that walks through our doors.

What’s your patient care philosophy?
My patient care philosophy is to meet patients’ where they are at and support them through their journey of enhancing their well-being. My goal is to always acknowledge the unique contexts that impact the lives of our patients and work to connect them with their strengths.

What can patients look forward to when they visit you?
I strive to provide a welcoming, non-judgmental environment for patients to work through life’s difficulties.
