Opening up to a stranger can be frightening for anyone. My goal is to make you feel completely comfortable while assisting you in expressing your feelings, discovering your inner strengths, validating your feelings, and challenging your negative thoughts. Let's get moving closer to living the life you dream of living!
First session
I approach each session with openness, authenticity, and respect. Using evidence-based interventions like Cognitive Processing Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, emotional regulation strategies, communication skills, and trauma-informed exploration of past experiences, you can expect a supportive, goal-oriented process that leads to reduced emotional distress, stronger relationships, greater self-understanding, and a renewed sense of control and hope.
Strengths
Specializing in trauma and PTSD, my goal is to create a supportive environment where you feel fully comfortable to be yourself. I view our work together through a human lens- we're all just humans trying to navigate life.
Ideal clients
My ideal clients are adult individuals, couples, and Veterans/first responders impacted by trauma, depression, or anxiety and feel stuck in painful patterns and long for relief, clarity, and connection. They seek a safe, supportive space to understand their experiences, improve communication, and build healthier relationships. Their goals often include healing past wounds, reducing emotional distress, and creating more fulfilling lives with greater self-awareness and resilience.

I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, tailoring aspects to fit your needs. During your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and your overall goals. We will look at how prior events have negatively affected your thoughts and emotions. I'll help you learn how to challenge those negative thoughts and emotions, ultimately evoking much more positive ones.
