I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience in behavioral health, with a concentrated focus on mental health and substance abuse. My extensive experience dealing with and treating substance abuse has placed me at the frontlines of mental health care. Before coming to Grow Therapy, I worked clinical leadership positions, including Clinical Supervisor and currently Clinical Director who provides clinical supervision to behavioral health practitioners, to being a highly sought-after mental health consultant and advisor. I have a master’s and bachelor’s degree in social work from the University of Missouri-Kansas City and the University of Central Missouri. I also hold many certificates and training surrounding mental health, including being a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Virginia, Maryland, and Missouri.
