There are times in our lives when we need assistance to help us in meeting our individual and family goals. Life can take a turn that we are not ready for. Change can be expected or unanticipated, leaving the individual with anxieties and stressors that are difficult to process. I have a PhD in Psychology and LCSW. I am also married to a retired Navy Veteran and mom/bonus mom to seven. I have spent the past 28 years working within the criminal justice and civil court system with individuals, families, and, adolescents, as well as advocating for victims of crime and first responders, including military families.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session we will start with brief introductions and then dive into your specific challenges. This will allow us to create a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My biggest strength is working with each individual client, and meeting them where they are on their journey. There is no one-size-fits-all approach, as we all have unique needs. Sometimes we have to combine modalities in order to reach a goal. I provide the following services: Domestic Violence and Sexual Assualt Assistance, Family Counseling, Group Counseling, Individual Assessments, Individual Counseling, Law Enforcement and Veteran Family counseling, I am very good at assessing the current issues and assisting you in formulating your next steps to assist you in identifying your immediate and long term needs.

My treatment methods

EMDR

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a mental health treatment technique that involves a therapist utilizing standard procedures designed to stimulate bilateral brain activity to help you process traumatic memories and other distressing memories.

Trauma-Focused CBT

Trauma focused CBT involves three phases in order to assist an individual in healing from traumatic events. The first phase includes stabilization, the second phase assists in processing the trauma through narration, and the third phase allows for integration and consolidation into a more positive mindset.

Collaborative Management and Assessment of Suicidality (CAMS)

CAMS (Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality) This method is an interactive process in which the therapist and the individual work closely to develop a treatment plan to reduce their depressive symptoms. It is an empathetic and nonjudgemental approach to target and reduce suicidality and increase hope and reasons for living.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

IFS is a method that identifies and addresses the multiple sub-personalities contained in each individual. This method focuses on healing and restoring mental balance to the individual.
