I understand that starting counseling is not easy. Chances are that you’ve tried it before, or that things currently feel like they’re too much to handle. You don’t have to do this alone. My goal is to help you reach YOUR goals. Topics may include: self-esteem/worth, coping skills, psych-Ed, mood regulation, couple counseling, anxiety, depression, OCD, daily stressors, affair recovery, trauma/ PTSD resolution, sexual dysfunction, support for LBGTQA+ or ENM lifestyle, military life challenges, grief and more. I support all beliefs and will gladly incorporate yours into sessions if that is your wish. Each appointment is truly for YOU!

Service Members, Veterans, and their Families- It's important to acknowledge that serving our Great Nation comes with its fair share of challenges. These challenges can have a lasting impact on our nation's heroes and their loved ones. The process of reintegrating after deployments, the loss of community during transitions and relocations, and exposure to traumatic events are just a few examples of the difficulties that individuals, couples, and families may face.

I enjoy working with a variety of clients to overcome obstacles and challenges and increase happiness and satisfaction in multiple areas of life. My primary treatment approach is cognitive-behavioral therapy, meaning we work on changing thoughts and behaviors in order to change feelings, but I do incorporate other approaches when they would be beneficial. If you are seeking to improve your self-esteem, relationships, work, or school performance, I may be able to assist. Also, as an Army veteran and the spouse of a retired veteran, I understand the issues our military and families face.

I understand that many people suffer from anxiety and depression. When we ignore these issues it can have a negative impact on our daily lives. It can affect our personal relationships, the ability to deal with our work environment and prevent us from feeling good about ourselves. Nobody wants to experience this but many of us do and we often don't know how to deal with these feelings. If you're willing to take the first step and seek guidance there is a way to become better at navigating these issues. Sometimes all you need is someone to help show you the path to a better quality life.

Hey! Have you found yourself doing life, “adulting,” making the decisions, and yet something doesn’t feel right? Do you feel like you're wearing a mask, pretending that everything's just fine? You've tried "self-care," the books, yoga, and talking with friends, but you're feeling like a burden, or worse...damaged. Where do you go when there is no one else to turn to? You need someone who understands how your past traumas affect your present life. With the support of a trained trauma specialist and sex therapist, we can process these silent hurts together. We can find your renewed, confident self, bursting with self-esteem.

As a therapist, I help you find the clarity you need to make big decisions, navigate life transitions, and process emotionally difficult experiences. I have experience in outpatient therapy clinics as well as experience in residential settings with people who are living with PTSD. Our initial session will be a discussion about what brings you to therapy and what you’d like to change. Our work will be collaborative; you will have choice and autonomy along the way.

If you are like many of my clients, you’ve been through a lot; you've fought to get to this point in life, are driven, and consider yourself a hard-earned-version of personal success in continuous process. Having already done a lot of personal work on yourself, you’ve begun to realize there are some things that you thought you dealt with and put to bed, but for some reason they have started popping up again. You may have an established meditation or self care practice and are noticing some new emotional static. Your established skills don’t seem to be doing the trick and you need help navigating how to move forward.

I know all too well the importance of utilizing mental health care, we all face struggles. In my years of working with families and children within public schools and in private practice, I have learned forgiveness and healing is possible. Being released of anxiety and depression and past traumas can happen, if you trust the process of mental health.
