My clinical experience spans a variety of community mental health, crisis intervention, private practice and treatment settings.

I began my career in women’s shelters, supporting individuals navigating the impacts of trauma, domestic violence, housing insecurity, and systemic barriers to safety and stability.

I spent several years as a crisis counselor with the King County Crisis Line, responding to calls from individuals experiencing suicidal and acute mental health crises, substance use concerns, and other life-threatening emergencies. This work deepened my ability to remain grounded and compassionate in the presence of intense emotional distress.

I also worked in a men’s co-occurring inpatient treatment facility serving adult males navigating addiction, severe and persistent mental illness, and involvement with the criminal legal system. In this role, I facilitated individual and group therapy while supporting clients through recovery, stabilization, and reintegration.

In a specialized anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorders outpatient group practice, I worked with adolescents and adults often with focus on clinical presentations at the intersections of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), trauma and neurodivergence.
