I specialize in working with veterans, military spouses, first responders, and adults who have been impacted by trauma. Do you feel stuck in survival mode? Do you maybe feel on edge, uncertain, overwhelmed or maybe unsure of who to trust? Do you feel like trying to do it all alone and feel like you’re just always struggling and feel lost? My clients usually come to therapy when they realize maybe they need someone to just talk to. I don’t prefer the idea of someone being sold on therapy, it should feel safe, calm, and comfortable.
I use a form of DBT therapy because I have found that working with men/veterans and women w/ trauma, trust is the biggest aspect of our ability to process the hard things experienced in their lives. My clients feeling safe is the most important thing to me. After, we focus on recognizing triggers w/out judgment, processing them, and building coping skills.
Therapy with me is calm, like talking to a friend you trust to not judge you, one that always show up, but will also hold you accountable in a kind way when needed, with laughter always included because therapy isn’t meant to just be serious all the time. I’m proud of you for even being on here looking for a therapist.

I typically utilize aspects of DBT, focusing on identifying emotions/triggers, self validating/soothing, reframing the thought after and then going into mindfulness. Think of it like, "I know I am feeling this way, it is okay that I feel this way." Then after shifting the lens to be more accepting of it, followed by something that facilitates you feeling more grounded.
