I believe that every person has a set of unique skills and the ability to learn more, unique challenges and the ability to overcome them. I have trained to be an asset to those facing anxiety, trauma, grief, and readjustment challenges, especially within the military community. No challenge is too difficult with the right skills and support.
I have been trained in EMDR, the most effective trauma treatment approach to date. I have seen great strength and success in my clients who undergo this treatment option. I also use SFBT, and CBT for anxiety, depression, and adjustment.
You have skills and you have challenges. When the challenges seem to great for your skills, turn to those of us ready to support you. It takes bravery to reach out for help, but you can do this.

I mainly utilize EMDR, CBT, SFBT, and EFT (for couples). We'll spend the first "phase" of therapy getting to know each other, your history, and your goals before moving into specific treatment. These are fairly fast-paced approaches to healing, but can be adjusted to your specific needs.
