About me

I have been a therapist for 12+ years. I love my job. I started as a child/adolescent therapist and now work with adults. So I have a round amount of knowledge and experience with all age groups. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, Seeking Safety, MAP, and TFCBT. I specialize in trauma informed care and have unique experience with the Autism, ADHD, and developmental/intellectual disabilities population. I also have older adult experience with Dementia and or medical/chronic pain issues. I do enjoy working with family and / or relationship building interventions.
