I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with ten years of experience. I specialize in trauma and substance use treatment for veterans, service members, and civilians navigating PTSD, complex trauma, and addiction. I've worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, so I understand each stage of recovery presents its own unique obstacles.
I know that recovery barriers like stigma, distrust, and even figuring out where to start can seem like Everest when filtered through the lens of trauma. I use Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy - evidence-based, structured approaches designed to help my clients process trauma and build coping skills that hold up when the air feels thin. Sessions focus on reducing avoidance, managing triggers, and developing actionable relapse prevention strategies, one stage at a time.
My job is to provide a space where you can do the hard work safely, meet you with the respect the process demands, and make sure you leave with tools that actually work.
Additional areas of focus: Communication problems, Forgiveness, Guilt and shame, Life purpose, Mood disorders, Post-traumatic stress, Self-love
