With over 20 years of mental health counseling experience, working with children, teenagers and adults, in various settings, I decided to start a group practice in the summer of 2021. We continue to grow as being one of the leading mental health outpatient counseling practices in the valley. I ensure that all of my counselors on my team feel as though they are completely supported and equipped with the knowledge, skills and experience necessary to provide a high level of care to all clients we serve. The practice is held to a high standard both professionally and ethically. We would gladly welcome you to begin with us. I hold a Bachelor's in Psychology from Purdue University and in 2007 I graduated with my Master's in Social Work from Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri. I am a Clinical Supervisor through the AZBBHE.
