I am a licensed clinical social worker with my Bachelors degree in Social Worker from Loras College and my Masters in Social Work from St. Ambrose University. I began my career as a school social worker in a therapeutic day school supporting individuals aged 0-21. After moving to the Chicagoland area, I transitioned into the healthcare setting where I intervened in crisis situations and linked community members to resources in a large hospital system. My career has provided me the ability to work with many diverse backgrounds including children and their families, caregivers, older adults, individuals living with chronic health needs and veterans. I spent several years volunteering for a local service organization providing crisis counseling and case management services. I believe in a holistic approach to care in order to help provide innovative evidenced based support to those seeking help. I support individuals 18 years of age and older.
