Get to know Eileen!

Outside of the office Eileen enjoys spending time with her young family.  She enjoys watchig romantic comedies, however when asked what her favorite movie character was she mentioned Princess Aurora from Sleeping Beauty because it brings back childhood memories.  To unwind she enjoys doing yoga and meditation at home.  She can also be found playing in local dart leagues…impressive! 

 

Work with Eileen!

Eileen’s professional motivation is to help others.  She will often tell clients that she tries to see each client as the whole person and not “broken” or someone to “fix.”  When working with Eileen clients can expect a nonjudgemental, compassionate ear and someone to help sort through challenges.  She has chosen the field of mental health to be someone who will listen and be present when you feel isolated. She is quirky and outgoing.  Clients report that she makes them feel like their story is important and that they mean something to her.
