Personal Statement
My therapeutic approach is to build a trusting and positive relationship with patients and their families. I strive to help patients gain self-empowerment and build a growth mindset, using the highest quality of care. I work collaboratively with patients in their journey to build healthy coping tools to help manage life's stressors, as well as build positive relationships with others. I utilize my own interest in health and wellness to have a holistic approach with patients in addressing mental health and behavioral needs. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, going to concerts, being in nature and spending time with my husband.
