“I choose to work in the behavioral health field to help close the gap in care for underserved communities—especially in rural areas where access is limited and the need is great. Being part of the Waterfall team inspires me because it aligns with my commitment to providing compassionate, integrated care where it’s most needed. I’m proud to contribute to such a mission-driven organization that values equity, integrity, and whole-person health.” 

Under the clinical supervision of Adam Clark, LCSW
