I work with adults, couples, and families carrying trauma — including veterans, survivors of childhood abuse, and complex trauma that never had a name — along with anger, personality disorders, and adolescents whose families have stopped being able to hear each other. I start by listening, not by handing you a worksheet. Once I understand what's actually going on, we build a plan together, then track whether it's working, session by session, using feedback-informed treatment — so neither of us has to guess.
I'm certified in TF-CBT, DBT, and Adlerian approaches, and am completing my EMDR certification, alongside ADHD and parent coaching training. My work is methodical: assessment first, plan second. Because I measure progress every session, my clients see meaningful improvement well above national benchmarks — and almost none get worse.
I've faced my own share of loss, a fractured family, and the work of rebuilding one. That's part of why I don't rush the first step — understanding your story — before we talk about a plan. If you're wondering whether this could help, a short conversation is usually enough to find out. I'd like to hear from you.

We begin with assessment — listening closely to your story before naming a plan. From there we use feedback-informed treatment, checking your progress every session instead of guessing. The result, borne out in my own client outcomes data: greater emotional stability, stronger relationships, fewer trauma symptoms, and real clarity about who you are.

For trauma — especially with veterans and adult survivors — I use Trauma-Focused CBT and am completing my EMDR certification. With personality disorders, I partner with DBT groups and use individual sessions to connect those skills to a client's sense of self. For mood disorders, I mainly use CBT. With couples, the focus shifts to what's happening between you.
