From her beginning in general counseling to substance abusing clients, she shifted gears into substance abuse prevention (K-12), then into Student Assistance Program counseling and coordination. From there she left direct service and went into academia, where she is currently teaching both prevention and counseling courses. She is also currently providing prevention consultation to schools and agencies as a part of the counseling program's emphasis in addictions counseling and prevention.
