I have a Doctor of Social Work focusing on trauma and mindfulness tools for natural emotional regulation. My background is in Forensics, so trauma-focused CBT is a treatment that I have done frequently with court-involved youth and adults. I have worked with individuals and families for 20 years where I have provided treatment for ADHD, ODD, depression, anxiety, and relationship issues.
I have worked with individuals for over 20 years from a strengths-based, solution-focused approach. I provide treatment using acceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and cognitive behavior therapy. I specialize in relationships and trauma.
My goal is to create a paradigm shift within a space of safety and empowerment. I want to highlight family systems that contribute to current life challenges and other influences in our environment. I prescribe brief assignments for self-reflection and self-care to provide tools that will last after treatment.
