About My Clients

For some, one of the hardest things to do in life is ask for help. Often, we are conditioned from a young age to believe that asking for help with our mental health is a sign of weakness in strength or character. That message, along with several other factors, lays the foundation for days, weeks, months, or years spent struggling with trauma and/or various emotional, behavioral, social, or relational issues. I will empower and encourage you at every step to make the changes you want and need.

My Background and Approach

I am a supportive therapist that will collaborate with you on your journey towards healing. I provide a safe and client centered environment to explore physical, sexual, verbal, emotional, combat related, etc. trauma and other significant life, self esteem, self identity, and relationship issues. My clinical experience includes working with veterans, adults, and couples.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

No matter where you are in your journey or life, it is never too late to ask for help. Finding a good match for a therapist can make all the difference. I invite you to contact me at my practice Trauma and Supportive Therapy to explore our therapeutic fit and expand upon your healing journey.
