With over 20 years in the field, being an element of change has been the focus of my career. I earned my Master's Degree in Social Work from Rutger's the State University of NJ, which combined with my experience has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to support individuals and families effectively. I have spent a great deal of my career working with individuals who are experiencing personal crisis. I have learned that growth and change are achieved differently for each individual as this journey is personal. Mental health can be a difficult subject to breach. I strive be a catalyst to assist with this process in a way that is comfortable and consistent.
