Are you feeling lost in life, like the way forward is being swept away before you can find it? Struggling with the future leads to all kinds of day-to-day struggles: can't focus, can't sleep, eating your feelings, not wanting to be around people just to name a few. I love helping people figure out who and what they want to be when they grow up and finding control over the everyday struggles.

I believe first and foremost that we all have the innate ability to heal. When we are stuck in pain and life-long patterns that are no longer working, it can be difficult to see the path toward healing. I work with adults and couples struggling with a spectrum of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions.

PTSD doesn't develop only in those people who have experienced combat. You need a counselor who is aware of the many facets and forms of trauma and how they shape the person you are and how you experience the symptoms of PTSD. Veterans often have difficulty in working with therapists because many therapists have never experienced the military culture and the chaotic world of warfare. Having a therapist who is also a combat veteran enhances client trust, progress, and the working alliance. Having a counselor who is also aware of the trauma of Domestic Violence enhances your progress. I am very sensitive to the needs of PTSD people.

I am a licensed therapist that specializes in treating individuals who have experienced early childhood adversities resulting in complex post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), dissociative identity disorder (DID), and other related problems including depression, addictions, and anxiety. My passion for this field developed early on in my career as a missionary pastor living and ministering to US Military stationed in Germany for nearly 20 year. I saw the immense long term impact that early childhood trauma can have on a person's mental health and well-being.
