Great to meet you!

In addition to being a licensed mental health counselor, I have had 24 years of experience as a para-professional providing crisis response services to First Responders while performing my duties as a law enforcement officer. Upon my retirement from law enforcement, I have worked with a multitude of clients and a wide variety of diagnoses, with primarily focusing on PTSD.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I provide EMDR therapy which by evidence is the most effective therapy for PTSD. I bring a lot of life experience to counseling, especially trauma/crisis issues for First Responders/Veterans. My focus is to walk this journey with you and resolve your therapeutic goals so that you may put your past in your past and have a renewed sense of self.

What you can expect from our first session

If you are dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, coping, existential/quality of life concerns, there are solutions for restoring joy and having a resolve for these issues. Using an integrative approach, therapy is tailored to best serve your specific needs. I take a directive approach to therapy as well as provide supportive guidance with warmth and humor . But most of all, I believe in the power of sincerity and respect to truly have the collaborative experience that I wish to provide.
