I am compassionate and nonjudgmental who will offer the support you need to overcome life's difficulties. We are all different in the way we experience and manage life. I have always been interested in the wellness of others and have been blessed to watch many people find recovery. If you are feeling discouraged, overwhelmed, worried or sad, then together we can discover or revisit your healthy options to navigate those feelings. You have taken a step in the right direction to navigate those feelings and to reach out for help. Connection to others allows us to find peace and improved quality of life.
As a Veteran myself I have extensive experience in Military Culture, Children & Families, Substance Abuse, & Trauma. I provide skillful and caring psychotherapy for adults, adolescents, & children. My areas of interest are PTSD to include military traumas, substance abuse, depression & anxiety disorders, attachment disorders, as well as personality disorders

Drawing on a myriad of therapeutic techniques, I strive to create a respectful and supportive environment in which clients of any age feel heard and supported as they navigate and negotiate whatever challenges that arise.
