I am a licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor in the State of Missouri. I have been practicing for 16 years and have garnered most of my experience through the community mental health systems and my own real-life experiences with mental health and substance abuse problems.

Think evidence-based guidance served with a side of straight talk and a dash of dry humor: no scare tactics, no shame spirals, just realistic steps toward feeling like the upgraded version of yourself.
