Introduction

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience working on college campuses, for tribal organizations, people with substance use issues and a wide variety of mental health issues. My goal is to come alongside others to support and provide a safe, confidential space on their path to healing. I graduated from Walla Walla College to obtain my Masters in Social Work graduating in 2003. I have since attained my Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist as well. Healing is a journey as a person navigates challenges from both within and outside of themselves. I am honored to help others on that journey. Helping people integrate their faith into their healing is one of my specialties. Personally, I love the mountains and enjoy hiking, gardening, reading, crafting, riding horses and essentially being outdoors or next to a fire relaxing.
