Introduction

After 15 years of a career in customer service and project management I made a bold move and left the corporate world and returned to school for a masters degree in Social Work and counseling. With 20 years of experience in behavioral health, social work and substance abuse fields providing direct clinical care, clinical supervision, employee training and coaching as well as program development and project management I decided to shift my focus to private practice.
