Biography

As a counselor at CMU, it is my goal to help you navigate the challenges you encounter during this exciting, and often stressful, time in your life. Your mental health is an important component of your college success. I hope to provide support and guidance needed when life gets overwhelming. Within a safe, relaxed and inclusive environment, I strive to build a trusting therapeutic relationship. Utilizing a client-centered/cognitive-behavior approach, we will explore concerns, build on strengths and develop effective coping skills to tackle life's challenges. 

I have had the privilege of working with all age groups in a variety of mental health settings as a Master's Level Psychologist and School Psychologist for the past 30 years. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, self-harm, substance abuse and identity concerns, with special interest and training in Autism and Personality Disorders. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from Texas A&M University and my Masters of Arts degree in Clinical Psychology from St. Mary's University.
