I specialize in Expert Witness Testimony and assessment involving Intimate Partner Violence/Coercive Control cases, child physical/sexual abuse, trauma, testimony, and assessments. I understand your fear and your needs to protect you and your children. I am quite well versed on personality traits of abusers that shift the focus of your case to risk to you and your children. I rely on data and peer-reviewed research that provides legitimacy to your case. My background also involves evaluations of victims as well as criminal offenders, which adds experience in identifying patterns of abuse.
Clergy Abuse is also a national problem and parallels the trauma of IPV/CC survivors. You may feel very alone, confused, and abandoned by trusted religious leaders and your community. I am prepared to provide treatment for your unique IPV/CC and spiritual abuse and to help you navigate your path.
Whether you need an expert witness, treatment, or an evaluation, know that I am driven by a strong motivation to provide support. My personal and professional experiences with IPV/CC, physical/sexual trauma, religious abuse, assessment, and courts have shaped this commitment. I am very invested in meeting my clients' needs with intervention and planning.

Research supports that Courts do not have the information needed on perpetration of abuse or its effects on victims for custody decisions in IPV/CC cases. I provide testimony and education on adult and child IPV/CC, assessment, and trauma therapy. I want to be a part of change in these cases.

IPV/CC, physical/sexual/psychological trauma for adults and children, has measurable negative effects on mental and physical health. As numbers of perpetrators of IPV/CC and Clergy Abuse rise in our awareness, we can shift the spotlight from victim to perpetrator. Lastly, with 7 years experience with Veteran's Disabilities, I can also offer formal evaluations for your Rating Decision needs.
