I am a behavioral health professional with over 15 years of experience in addiction, recovery, and mental health services. I am a licensed social worker with an MSW from Temple University. My expected date for clinical licensure is November 2027. My clinical background includes extensive work with adult men and adolescents involved in both the criminal and juvenile justice systems. I currently serve as an outpatient mental health therapist at Thrive Counseling, Consulting, Training, & Wellness. As a person in long-term recovery, I bring lived experience that enhances my clinical perspective and strengthens my ability to engage clients with authenticity, empathy, and credibility. This unique combination of professional training and personal insight allows me to build meaningful therapeutic connections and support individuals in navigating complex challenges related to addiction and mental health.
