About My Clients

When life knocks you off balance, it's easy to lose sight of who you are. I help people rebuild trust, find relief from trauma and anxiety, and feel safe and like themselves again. Maybe you've experienced combat, military service, sexual trauma, assault, religious trauma, or a serious accident. Maybe you're wondering how to get rid of your PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or low self-esteem. Together, we’ll create a path toward feeling grounded, connected, and revitalized.

My Background and Approach

I am a licensed clinical psychologist that specializes in trauma-focused therapy, helping clients heal from overwhelming experiences. I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, EMDR, CPT, PE, ACT, EMDR, and DBT. Using a compassionate and collaborative approach, I support clients in rebuilding safety, self-trust, and connection in their lives. I have experience in various settings with various populations, such as working with the VA, private practice, universities, and community health. You don’t have to face the weight of trauma alone - I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can begin to heal and feel like yourself again. With extensive experience and a compassionate approach, I’m here to walk alongside you. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d be honored to support you on your journey.
