"I consider it an honor to be able to provide therapy for patient’s during a time in their life where they need the support the most. Everyone does not have access to someone who will advocate, show up, rejoice and goal plan with them but fortunately for our patient’s with Astera they have access to quality resources and care through services from the Social Work Department. As an experienced Clinician of almost 10 years, I strive to meet each person where they are while working alongside them to make realistic goals of the change they want to see in their lives. I’m very passionate about helping others and creating a safe space where patients can leave feeling rejuvenated and empowered in all that they do afterwards."
