I first began my work with trauma in college, where I served as an Advocate for survivors of intimate partner violence, sexual assault, and stalking at my University's Crisis Response Center. I then went on to continue working at the office post-graduation as an Advocate. While working there, I served as a Crisis Counselor on RAINN's national chatline for these same populations, as well as those experiencing child abuse. From there I gained experience working with dual diagnosis in both the IOP and PHP setting before making my way to a group private practice where I specialized in trauma therapy.
