I work with adults over 18 and I understand the military culture and community and am here for you!.
Life changes can bring feelings of helplessness and hopelessness creating anxiety and depression that makes you feel stuck. When you feel overwhelmed, it can be challenging to identify the best tools to help you through difficult times. Most of us stop doing the things we enjoy when we feel anxious, depressed, or stressed. Learning how to manage these situations will allow you to reach your personal goals and enjoy a more fulfilling life.

Specialized experience: veterans, trauma, sexual abuse.
We all struggle with the inevitable trials of being human. You may be a parent or partner in a significant relationship struggling with connection, and in need of both practical and emotional support. At times, feelings of anxiety, apathy, and depression arise, and feelings of disconnection and loneliness can take hold. For others, we may be at a crossroads in our life, brought about by divorce, relocation, caregiving for a loved one, or a desire to have a bigger impact in our communities and the world. We may be asking ourselves BIG questions, “what’s next”, “what should I do”, and “what do I want from life”.

I truly feel that individuals don't care what you know until they know that you care. I try to meet individuals where they are in life and treat them unconditionally as well as with respect at all time. A person isn't going to focus on therapy if no electricity or food is within the home. I will provide you with community resources which can assist with your basic needs so that you're focused and ready for what therapy contributes to your life. I offer what you need to change, not what you want to hear. Teamwork approach!

Whether facing long-term challenges or brief struggles, we all need connection and understanding. In my experience, a strong, collaborative relationship between client and therapist is the best agent of change in therapy. I often use cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic concepts (along with a healthy dose of humor) but everyone is different so the approach should match your personality and needs. I would love to help you increase understanding of yourself and others so your life can be more meaningful and satisfying!

Do you ever find yourself stuck in the daily grind to the point that you cannot even enjoy your life? Many of us find ourselves in that exact spot. Between relationship woes, childhood trauma, dealing with the fear and limitations of this pandemic, or even stress at work we can end up feeling hopeless, worried, and even powerless. But, it doesn't have to be this way. It is possible to find peace and freedom from the weight of the things holding you back from enjoying your life to its fullest. I provide a safe place where you can be open and express yourself without fear of judgment.

I do my best work with people who have experienced years of disappointment and hurt. Many of my clients struggle with divorce, drug use, family problems, childhood hurts, church hurt, bullying, sexual abuse, bereavement, guilt, low self-esteem, and trauma. Many of my clients have been in therapy for more than three years and have, for the most part, given up on treatment because they do not feel that it has helped them. I work well with people who feel no one cares about them and want to give up.

Why is mental health important for veterans and the military?
Veterans are more likely to face mental health challenges than the general public, and such mental health challenges can make it difficult for them to navigate day-to-day life. Improved mental health can result in better interpersonal relationships, lower levels of stress, and decreased dependence on substances, such as drugs or alcohol, for many veterans. Addressing common mental health conditions can also help facilitate recovery from physical health challenges that are faced by many veterans, such as chronic pain, physical injury, or poor sleeping patterns. Therapists trained in working with veterans can help address these concerns and help improve veteran mental health.
How can veterans get access to mental health support?
There are many resources for veterans to get mental health support, including through the VA or through their primary care doctor. Many service personnel are eligible for free or reduced-cost mental health counseling through the VA, depending on their service history and current income. Veterans can also utilize online directories, such as Psychology Today, or nonprofit organization resources like the Wounded Warrior Project, to find a therapist or other healthcare professional that specializes in their specific mental health needs. Veterans may also benefit from community-based groups that facilitate social connection and/or address specific concerns, such as Alcoholics Anonymous.
What type of therapy is best for veterans?
Veterans may benefit from multiple types of therapy, depending on what mental health challenges they are facing. Veterans seeking therapy for anxiety or depression may benefit from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), which encourage clients to understand how their thought patterns influence their behavior. Veterans with PTSD may seek other more specialized forms of therapy to treat trauma symptoms, such as EMDR or exposure therapy. Many veterans and military personnel may also benefit from family or couples counseling to address the stress and adjustment challenges that can be associated with military life.
Can therapy for veterans help with trauma and PTSD?
Therapy can be highly effective in helping veterans with trauma and PTSD. Therapists specializing in veteran mental health often have extensive training and experience helping veterans navigate symptoms of trauma and can teach clients coping techniques to handle common symptoms associated with trauma and PTSD. Some therapists may use talk therapy as their primary approach, while others utilize more structured therapy modalities in sessions, such as EMDR. Veterans can try multiple therapy modalities to find the best fit for them. Therapists can also help make referrals or connect clients with available resources, such as VA benefits, to help address other life concerns.
