My Why

My “why” is rooted in the profound impact of 9/11, which inspired me to serve my country in the United States Navy. That same sense of duty, purpose, and camaraderie continues to guide me in my work as a clinician. Since entering the behavioral health field in 2014, I have been dedicated to providing care and support to active-duty service members, veterans, and first responders who have given so much in service to others. Through therapy, I strive to give back to those who serve, helping them navigate their challenges, heal from their experiences, and find strength in their journey. For me, this work is more than a profession; it is a continuation of my commitment to service and to the people who understand its sacrifices firsthand.
