I am skilled in individual and couples therapy. I am Veteran oriented with 26 years of military service experience. I am an empathic therapist that can relate to the difficulties associated with coming to therapy. I will provide you with the opportunity to grow, gain insight, and establish goals. Clients need a safe, non-judgmental, open space to express thoughts, feelings, and emotions. I will provide that space for you! Let's begin the journey together to manifest the best version of you!
I specialize in providing immediate, evidence-based psychoeducation, structured cognitive-behavioral techniques, and tailored coping strategies to support mental health. I help by offering access to information on, identifying, and managing, anxiety, depression, and stress, acting as a supportive tool for therapy.
I am extensively appreciative for clients sharing their most intimate thoughts and feelings that they are experiencing. I can certainly imagine how difficult that must be in a counseling environment. I am dedicated to making this process as smooth as possible for clients. Whenever you’re ready to take the next step, I’m here to help you.

I started counseling as a young non-commissioned officer in the Army and developed a niche. I began with performance and growth counseling and it developed into a passion for career counseling and helping soldiers in need. I sought education to sharpen my skills and practice as a clinician.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
