Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Tucson, AZ 85712
With 6+ years as a therapist, palliative care social work experience, and a volunteer background in hospice and veterans' care, I bring both clinical skill and life experience to support you through grief, identity shifts, relationship changes, caregiver stress, and life's later chapters.
If you're over 50, you may be navigating changes that feel deeply personal. Retirement can leave you wondering who you are now and what gives your days meaning. Grief reshapes daily life. Late-life divorce or breakups can feel really painful when you didn't expect to start over. Caregiving, health scares, loneliness, and end-of-life questions bring complex emotions about fear, love, purpose, and legacy. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in private practice, I offer warm, direct, collaborative therapy—creating space to feel heard and supported, and help you process what's real, build emotional resilience, and find steadier ground.

I also support individuals facing life transitions, grief and loss, and the unique stressors experienced by military members and first responders.
As a Marine Veteran, I understand the strength it takes to keep going. But I also know that "sidelining" our pain to get the mission done can eventually leave us feeling tired, stuck, or divided. I use Parts Work to create a safe, welcoming space where every part of you; the protector, the survivor, even the parts that feel "broken" are heard and respected. My goal is to help you move beyond just "getting by" so you can lead your life with a sense of wholeness and heart. You don’t have to fight yourself anymore. Let’s start the journey of coming home to who you truly are.

I work with adult men in Tucson who feel stressed, stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed—and who want practical tools without pressure or judgement. Many of the men I see are dealing with anxiety, anger, burnout, relationship strain, trauma, or major life transitions. My approach is direct, grounded, and respectful of how men experience life. While my primary focus is men’s therapy, I also do limited work with women, particularly around borderline personality disorder, childhood trauma, dissociation, and identity.

Veterans Therapists
Why is mental health important for veterans and the military?
Veterans are more likely to face mental health challenges than the general public, and such mental health challenges can make it difficult for them to navigate day-to-day life. Improved mental health can result in better interpersonal relationships, lower levels of stress, and decreased dependence on substances, such as drugs or alcohol, for many veterans. Addressing common mental health conditions can also help facilitate recovery from physical health challenges that are faced by many veterans, such as chronic pain, physical injury, or poor sleeping patterns. Therapists trained in working with veterans can help address these concerns and help improve veteran mental health.

How can veterans get access to mental health support?
There are many resources for veterans to get mental health support, including through the VA or through their primary care doctor. Many service personnel are eligible for free or reduced-cost mental health counseling through the VA, depending on their service history and current income. Veterans can also utilize online directories, such as Psychology Today, or nonprofit organization resources like the Wounded Warrior Project, to find a therapist or other healthcare professional that specializes in their specific mental health needs. Veterans may also benefit from community-based groups that facilitate social connection and/or address specific concerns, such as Alcoholics Anonymous.

What type of therapy is best for veterans?
Veterans may benefit from multiple types of therapy, depending on what mental health challenges they are facing. Veterans seeking therapy for anxiety or depression may benefit from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), which encourage clients to understand how their thought patterns influence their behavior. Veterans with PTSD may seek other more specialized forms of therapy to treat trauma symptoms, such as EMDR or exposure therapy. Many veterans and military personnel may also benefit from family or couples counseling to address the stress and adjustment challenges that can be associated with military life.

Can therapy for veterans help with trauma and PTSD?
Therapy can be highly effective in helping veterans with trauma and PTSD. Therapists specializing in veteran mental health often have extensive training and experience helping veterans navigate symptoms of trauma and can teach clients coping techniques to handle common symptoms associated with trauma and PTSD. Some therapists may use talk therapy as their primary approach, while others utilize more structured therapy modalities in sessions, such as EMDR. Veterans can try multiple therapy modalities to find the best fit for them. Therapists can also help make referrals or connect clients with available resources, such as VA benefits, to help address other life concerns.
