Addiction Treatment Staff

I have a passion for seeing the guests at Gulf Breeze Recovery rediscover their health and well-being. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor

and Clinical Director at Gulf Breeze Recovery, and have worked here since its inception. In my role as Clinical Director, I guide the clinical team, providing supervision, and safeguarding the culture of health and self-care, ensuring that the guests of the program receive the best possible care.

Having struggled caring for my own family member suffering with alcohol addiction, I am dedicated to helping families work through addiction issues. After helping to create and maintain the family support group at Gulf Breeze Recovery, it has become an ongoing resource available to family members and loved ones who have graduated from the program.

I earned a Master’s Degree in Psychology and Counseling from Troy University and I’m also a Master’s Level Certified Addiction Professional. Providing counseling services in the Escambia County Jail, while working with individuals struggling with addiction and many other life concerns helped “pave” the way in my career. In the role as Clinical Director, I maintain active communication with an international community of experts and specialists related to addiction, recovery, and holistic well-being. My travels allow me to continue to grow personally and maintain a modern perspective that places each client’s well-being at the center of treatment.
