My passion in life is to help individuals transform their lives. I find success when I see others blossom toward personal growth and development. I enjoy working with a wide variety of populations centered around the provision of emotional growth, expressive arts, and recovery. I have worked with many populations with struggling with eating disorders, addiction, and dual diagnosis.
