I use ACT to anchor what you want your life to be about while integrating EMDR with parts work to explore ways you might be stuck in the past.
You've read all of the books and done the research, even listened to a TED talk or two. You logically understand why you're stuck and if that understanding was enough, you would not be here reading this. If the persistent hum of self-analysis isn't going to turn down the echoes of your past experiences, then what is? I can hold space to help you answer that question. By building a bridge between the efforts of the mind and the experiences of the body, we move beyond 'knowing' your story to creating lasting change so you can get clear about what is important to you and chart a new way forward.

My approach integrates cognitive-behavioral and acceptance-based therapies with trauma-informed and relational models specific to behavioral addiction.
I am one of a small number of clinicians nationally credentialed as both a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist Supervisor (CSAT-S) and an International Certified Gambling Counselor (ICGC-I). My practice focuses on adult men navigating the early, often crisis-level stages of recovery from sex and love addiction, problematic pornography use, gambling disorder, compulsive technology or gaming, and co-occurring substance use. If you're feeling overwhelmed by these behaviors or burdened by shame, you're not alone, and recovery is possible. My approach is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and rooted in deep clinical expertise.

I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment Theory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and also offer EMDR.
If you’re feeling anxious, stuck, or overwhelmed, you don’t have to stay there. Many of the people I work with are high-functioning on the outside but internally exhausted—caught in patterns of overthinking, self-doubt, or emotional shutdown that don’t seem to shift, no matter how hard they try. Therapy with me is active, collaborative, and results-driven. Together, we’ll identify what’s actually keeping you stuck and use practical, evidence-based strategies to create meaningful change.

Due to my extensive medical background as a nurse and as a stage IV metastatic breast cancer survivor since 2015, I know the ins and outs of procedures, surgeries, and other conventional practices. I also know a great deal about natural or alternative modalities to help move through this arduous process. I have also been a Christian for over 30 years and have homeschooled three children. I enjoy working with individuals who are keen to learn more about healing, not just mentally, but emotionally, physically, and spiritually. They want the light bulb to come on, and I listen while the client decides how to make impactful changes.

Finding the right therapist is not just about credentials or techniques, it’s about how safe you feel with another human being. My work is rooted first and foremost in relationship. I meet you as a person before anything else, with compassion, curiosity, honesty, and respect for your lived experience. Therapy with me is not about fixing you; it is about creating enough safety for you to come back home to yourself. Many of the people I work with have spent years feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or disconnected from who they truly are. Some have learned to survive by staying guarded, hyper-vigilant or emotionally shut down.

I utilize evidence-based approaches ( ACT, DBT) to help clients develop new skills and lean into their current strengths so they can move toward the life they want.
Do you often find yourself going back and forth about making a change in your head? Is part of you wanting to make that change, and part of you not feeling sure or quite ready yet? Maybe you're trying to get a deeper look at what's going on, but don't know how? This is all part of the change process, and you are probably further along than you realize! Sometimes, a new perspective and new tools can help us "get off the seesaw" and get closer to the life we want. I work to foster an inclusive space where my clients can be seen exactly as they are, without fear, so we can find the path forward together.
