Many of my clients are adults carrying the weight of trauma, C‑PTSD, community violence, military stress, moral injury, or painful life transitions. Others feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve them or struggle with anxiety, burnout, or sleep disruption that affects work and relationships. Clients often come to me when they’re overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure how to move forward. As a Veteran, I deeply understand trauma's impact on daily life and well-being. I also support clients seeking psychological testing to clarify PTSD, ADHD, Autism, or diagnostic concerns. Together, we work toward stability and meaningful change.
I help clients heal using evidence‑based, trauma‑focused care that emphasizes psychological safety, emotional regulation, and long‑term resilience. My approach integrates CBT, CPT, and culturally responsive treatment tailored to your needs. I also provide psychological evaluations, including PTSD assessments, ADHD and Autism testing, and diagnostic clarity.
Healing takes courage, and you deserve a space where you feel understood, supported, and safe to be yourself. Whether you're working through trauma, stress, or life changes, I’m here to walk with you at your pace with care that honors your experiences. You don’t have to navigate this alone. If my approach resonates, I invite you to reach out.
