Clinical Mental Health Counselor

I am a counselor at our Woburn clinic who provides therapy services!

My ideal clients are military veterans and first responders who are struggling with PTSD and substance use issues. Their needs include risk assessment and safety planning, securing stable housing, and addressing their trauma and substance use through individual counseling. They also benefit from support provided by family and friends during their recovery journey. The primary goals are to help them work through their trauma, address substance use challenges, develop effective coping skills, and advocate for their basic needs to improve their overall quality of life.

I served in the military for five years and was a Deputy Fire Chief for nearly 20 years. I can relate to this population from my own personal history. I was fortunate to get the help needed to help change and save my life. Many need the help and support I received.

I retired early from the fire department and went back to school to get my Master’s degree. I want to make a difference and help people, not for a paycheck but because I care about people.
