Community Involvement
I am a volunteer and advocate, working with local organizations that protect women, children, and families from abuse and homelessness, while assisting them with housing resources, substance abuse treatment, rehabilitation, education and professional training.
Throughout my career, I have come to the realization the more positive I take in (knowledge, wisdom, experience), the more I have to give. And that is my job. Providing positive guidance and support is the crux of my practice. I provide a compassionate, warm and welcoming environment, one that displays kindness, dignity, and respect that each of my clients need and deserve.
