Are you exhausted from anxiety that won't quit, depression that drains the joy from daily life, or trauma that keeps pulling you back to the past? I help adults break free from these patterns and build a life that feels calm, grounded, and meaningful. You don't have to "white-knuckle" it alone. I offer evening telehealth appointments specifically designed for working adults.
Together we'll identify what's keeping you stuck - whether that's anxious thoughts, old wounds, or a nervous system stuck in overdrive, and build practical, personalized tools to shift it. My approach blends evidence-based therapies (CBT, CPT, Prolonged Exposure) with mindfulness practices I have trained in deeply.
As a military veteran and VA-trained clinician, I understand that what you carry doesn't always have a name. I work with veterans on PTSD, moral injury, reintegration, and the invisible weight that miliary service can leave behind.

Trauma lives in our body long after the event is over. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Processing Theray (CPT) or Prolonged Exposure (PE), I help clients process that happened and reclaim a sense of safety in their own lives.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or one of its many forms (i.e Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure) intermixed with mindfulness based interventions. I have completed Spirit Rock's Buddhist Psychology Training (2025) and the VA's (Veteran Affairs) one year mindfulness facilitator training (2020).
