Great to meet you!

I have over 24 years of experience working with all different age groups and diagnoses. I have extensive experience working with complex trauma to include military, veteran and first responder related experiences. I have years of experience working with PTSD, moral injury and survivor's guilt.

My approach to therapy

I have a strong belief in providing extensive education to ensure the individuals I work with have a clear understanding of our treatment approach and focus. I pride myself in collaboratively identifying treatment goals and the most effective treatments to meet my clients needs. I have a direct but nurturing approach to my treatment methods.

What you can expect from me

Targeted areas for our first session will include an extensive psychosocial assessment as well as a collaborative discussion on short-term and long-term treatment goals. Following our first session my clients will have a clear understanding of our joint goals and treatment direction and focus.
