She brings a decade of clinical experience supporting people through addiction, anger, trauma, geriatric concerns, depression, anxiety, and faith-informed counseling. As a certified alcohol and drug counselor, she blends practical addiction expertise with a solution-focused mindset to help clients identify strengths and workable strategies.
