“I have a Bachelor of Arts from EOU in Sociology and Anthropology with an emphasis on research and social welfare. I also have a Master of Social Work from USC. I am a therapist with training in dialectical behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy and many other modalities. I continue to work with underserved populations that suffer from homelessness, addiction, trauma (sexual, emotional, physical), and mental illness. I help them find the life worth living while cultivating empathy for the world around them.”
