I received my bachelor’s degree in Sociology from Oregon State University in 2020. I am currently pursuing my master’s in psychology with a focus in Counseling from UMass Global. I’m from the Tacoma area and have lived here all my life except for my four years at Oregon State. After graduating in 2020, I moved back home to Washington and worked for the Department of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF) in Juvenile Rehabilitation. I worked as a counselor assistant at Oakridge Community Facility, a group home for incarcerated youth. I managed a caseload of two youths and assisted in the development and implementation of treatment and reentry plans. I also provided individual counseling and used Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) as a treatment model. I left this job in 2021 after deciding to go back to school to pursue a higher degree.

My approach to counseling depends on the client and his or her specific needs. I prefer to use evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). My goal is to support and empower my clients to achieve their goals in an environment that emphasizes confidentiality, respect, trust, and compassion.
