Bio

Hello everyone! I'm a Certified Substance Abuse Counselor, Qualified Mental Health Professional, and Social Work graduate student at the University of Kentucky. I have a diverse clinical background including work in crisis stability centers, mental health skill-building services, and outpatient medication-assisted treated (MAT) centers. A rural Appalachian upbringing in the wake of the Opioid Epidemic has shaped my often pragmatic and humanist approach to mental health and recovery services-- professional interests include the philosophy of liberation, peer-based support services, and collective healing through building communities. Feel free to send me a message about anything! I don't claim to know it all, but I'm one of the least judgmental people you're likely to meet =]
