I've been practicing for 17 years and specialize in treating trauma. I utilize EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to treat trauma, dissociative disorders, psychosomatic disorders, sleep disorders, anxiety, narcissistic abuse, and spiritual abuse/high-control group/cult abuse. I received my bachelor's degree in Sociology from California State University Fullerton, my master's degree from Montana State University in Marriage and Family Therapy, and my PhD from The University of Montana in Counselor Education and Supervision.
I am an Air Force Veteran and specialize in treating the military/veteran and first responder communities.
