PROVIDER BIO:
I have been working in the profession since 2015. I began my career working in a medication assisted treatment center. I then wished for a change of pace and worked in a residential and intensive outpatient facility with Menominee Nation. In 2018, I then transitioned to Oneida Behavioral Health. In 2023, I completed my Master’s program in clinical mental health and transitioned positions to psychotherapist.

I grew up in a rural town in lower Michigan, and after several moves throughout different states, I have settled in Black Creek, Wisconsin. I have three wonderful kiddos. I have 3 dogs; a German Shepherd (Marvel), another German Shepherd (Stormy) and a Shiatzu Maltese (Elsa). I enjoy kayaking, traveling, camping, running, reading, journaling, attending my children’s sporting events, volunteering and advocacy.

One thing I hope everyone will take with them is something that took years of my journey to learn and understand, “I am worth recovery and my life is worth fighting for. I am valuable and it is okay to care for myself.” Lastly, I am a firm believer in connections. “People need other people to be a living, screaming, breathing invitation to believe in better things.”
