I have been a social worker since 2000, starting my career in community mental health. Alongside my work there, I also started working for a private practice. As I moved between different cities and even states, I realized that the challenges were the same everywhere—overwork, frustration with productivity goals, and political issues. That’s when I decided to establish my own private practice.

Now, I am the owner of New Outlook Counseling Center, a group practice in Indiana. I also own Mind Body Spirit retreats (MBS), a company that provides training and professional development opportunities for therapists and healthcare professionals. With my extensive knowledge and experience in mental health, I am well-equipped to help professionals advance their skills and improve their practice.

 As a licensed clinical social worker, trained in EMDR and DBT, and certified as a registered play therapist, I deeply understand the needs and challenges faced by children, adolescents, adults, and families. In my group practice, we focus on providing evidence-based interventions like play therapy, EMDR, DBT, and more, to help clients overcome emotional, behavioral, and mental health challenges.
