Sometimes life gets difficult, due to our own actions or those of others. Many times we can figure things out on our own, but there are times when an outside perspective is helpful. I’m here to offer a non-judgmental and confidential environment to examine your life situation and decide if you are interested in change. We work at your pace, toward your goals, in a partnership. I want you to know there is hope for you and most of all that you are not broken, no matter how difficult life may seem.
I’ve spent the last 25 years working as a therapist at the US Department of Veteran Affairs, and have worked with people who have experienced military combat, sexual assault, substance abuse and interpersonal violence. I am trained in multiple evidence-based therapies that can help you come to terms with your traumatic experience and discover who you are now
I think we can work together toward your goals, as a team. I am ready to hear what you have to say, and find ways for you to end the pain and suffering you are now experiencing. Please contact me and let's see what we can do together.
