Help starts here to attain your peak performance level, enhance your development, and remove barriers to meeting your goals and mission in life. I am an experienced and empathetic diagnostician-therapist, LCSW supervisor, and program consultant-researcher. I have practiced over 30 years with individuals, families, groups, entry-level social workers, and business/agencies/workplaces delivering services to maximize strengths and integrate family and social systems. I have specialized experience working with military veterans, service members, and military families and bring to that work the understanding from my own life experience growing up in the Army during war time.

My clinical work focuses on the whole person and the person-in-environment, based on my training and scholarship on the brain basis of behavior-behavior change and interactions of social systems with the individual brain. I have also focused on working with young children, the elderly, and women (maternal and child health, reproductive health).

I use a full range of valid and up to date diagnostic and treatment methods, applied to the ages, developmental stages, and issues that the methods are most likely to be effective in treating according to robust research. Telehealth and in-person Cognitive Behavioral Therapy–Based Treatment for Chronic Pain (CBT-CP) and for sleep problems (CBT-I) available.

I use the evidence-based treatment protocol that is most effective for the specific condition and population. For example, Prolonged Exposure Therapy has been tested and found to be the most effective treatment for adult women with PTSD, while Trauma-informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the most effective for children with PTSD. CBT-Pain is the most effective for adults with chronic pain.
