After experiencing a tragedy, trauma, or abuse, you may have intense emotions, nightmares, and disturbing images in your mind. Perhaps you isolate or disconnect, or you keep thinking about what you should’ve done, and question why it happened. Using substances, and having increased depression, anxiety, and anger are all normal responses. Whether you've been struggling for decades, or if this is a new experience, you can regain control over your life, reconnect with others, and rebuild emotional and physical intimacy that may have been lost.

I'm a PhD, Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20+ years of experience, with most of my training and experience at the Dept of Veterans Affairs. As a recovery-oriented therapist, specializing in treating trauma, depression, and anxiety, I fully believe that recovery is possible. I use research-backed techniques to help you start feeling better quickly.
It can be very difficult to reach out to a new person for help, or to even think about sharing your story. We will go at your pace, starting where you're at today, and figure it out together. I can see you online via secure telehealth if you are located in CO, CA, PA or FL. I look forward to working with you.
