Introduction

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker offering virtual and in-person mental health therapy services, with experience providing therapy services to adolescents, adults, and families since 2019. My background includes human services, inpatient behavioral health, crisis intervention, community-based programs, and work with forensic, and veteran populations. I am committed to creating a safe therapeutic space for self-discovery, growth, and healing, empowering you to become your best self. What's with the name? Dr. Wayne Dyer's story about hearing his teacher calling him a "scurvy elephant" and later learning she called him a "disturbing element" is the inspiration for the name. Having worked with people of all ages and abilities who have been viewed by others as disturbing elements, I believe in the possibility of change, and healing is the space of possibilities. Scurvy Elephant = Possibilities
