I have worked in the field of Mental Health Counseling for over 20 years and have extensive experience working with adults, families, adolescents and children. I received much of my clinical training and experience working in inpatient hospital, residential treatment and outpatient treatment settings. During that time I held a variety of professional positions, received quality supervision and completed my Masters Degree in Community Counseling. I founded Forward Choices in order to create opportunities to better serve the mental health needs of local families, children and adolescents. As a small community clinic, we are better able to focus our attention according to your best interests and individual needs. I have found it to be rewarding to witness the progress of the clientele that we serve through Forward Choices. During my own free time I take time to immerse my self in individual hobbies of automobile restoration, cooking, personal study,exercise and engagement in wellness activities.
