About My Clients

I have 13 years of experience helping children, teens & adults (men and women) with trauma whether it was incurred in childhood or adulthood and victimization. I also work with military veterans and active-duty service members to navigate traumatic experiences and PTSD. Being a military veteran myself, this is very important. Lastly, I provide therapeutic services for adolescent, teen and young adult athletes that may be having a tough time with performance and/or injuries.
