Let's Connect (540) 802-5778
Having worked as a first responder, I understand the complexities of operating in both the responder role and as your individual self. Sometimes the lines between them blur, or tension arises between duty to your job and duty to your loved ones. If you're looking to address these conflicts, let's dig into them together. Military members and responders operate in unique occupational cultures that have their own systems, values and norms. If you're looking for a counselor that understands these systems and the unique stressors they present, I would honor the opportunity to work with you. Our goal is to get you back to "all clear".
I've worked in federal law enforcement and program management since 2007. My professional background provides a unique intersection in professional experience with both a strong psychological education foundation and practical experience with responder service and culture. I commend you for being here- researching your options is a first step forward.
Whether your usual coping methods for stress have stopped working or you're experiencing new symptoms and aren't sure where to start, working through the concern with an empathic and empowering therapist can bring relief. In my office, we'll unpack your concerns in a collaborative manner that focuses on your values and builds hope in your future.

Hi viewers! At the moment I'm not taking insurance, rates are self-pay. However I offer incentives for responders and their family members, which I'm happy to discuss over phone or email. You may also be able to use FSA/HSA funds to cover costs.

Feeling "stuck"? We'll look at the ways you've managed in the past and what may have recently changed (in relationships, your job, your stress) to build ways to roll out of a "rut". Or maybe you've noticed physical traits- racing heart, racing thoughts, tension or tightness that you can't relieve. These are all great places to start- when the body tells you something, it's worth a listen.

Your time is valuable, so we'll focus on finding solutions and building skills. I use thought-based, values-focused methods while considering how your systems (family, career, culture) and history (upbringing, relationships) impact thought processes and decision making. With couples, I primarily use Gottman therapy techniques since it's backed by decades of research and I've seen its impact :)
