• My counseling career started at a community mental health agency, where I still am today serving as a therapist, and clinical supervisor. I have worked in private practice part-time for the last 8 years. I also have been an Adjunct Faculty at Cuyahoga Community College teaching Sociology for the last nine years.  
• As a therapist I provide an open and safe space for exploring and expressing feelings and processing thoughts and experiences. My personality is open, outgoing and warm. My goal is for my client to feel comfortable and authentic so that they can move forward in a healthy and fulfilling way.
• I believe that the therapeutic relationship is most beneficial when there is some personality compatibility between client and therapist. I understand that may not always be the case and am more than happy to help you seek out the best fit for your needs.   
• I have a specialization in Early Childhood Mental Health and enjoy working with children, adolescents, families and adults. I have interests in adjustments concerns, blended families, lifecourse transitions, gender/sexuality issues, marital issues, feminist theory, and communication issues to name a few.
