Seeking mental health services for yourself or a loved one can be a vulnerable experience, and I’m here to walk you through the intake process every step of the way.

I’ve worked in the mental health field since 2004, in a variety of psychiatric, drug and alcohol treatment settings. I have experience in teaching, peer support and crisis management, in addition to medical billing & coding, auditing and direct client services.

I’ve always had a desire to be the support to others which I needed at tough times in my own life. I enjoy being a guiding light when someone reaches out for a hand or has a question. Joining the Aspire team has been a dream come true for me, because I get to fulfill this role while working alongside a team who all share a common goal and culture of helping others. When people are seeking services they are usually at some kind of crossroads and needing to write that new chapter. Every day is a new opportunity to re-write your story, and I’m here to connect you with an Aspire clinician to support you along the way.

When I’m not working you’ll find me spending time with my son and daughter, their amazing bonus Dad, and our two chocolate labs Moose and Buddy! I also enjoy volunteering for the American Cancer Society and help put on Relay for Life every year. My family loves to camp, BBQ, play board games, and spend time at the coast. We take a yearly trip to Hawaii, where we have fun whether it is stormy or sunny. Visiting the ocean is truly the best reset ever!
