At times, life can feel heavy—especially when you’ve been carrying the weight of responsibility, loss, or transition for far too long. Whether you’re a veteran navigating post-service challenges, a family member trying to reconnect, or someone struggling with anxiety, trauma, or burnout, you don’t have to go through it alone. Therapy offers a chance to rediscover balance, purpose, and hope.
I bring a grounded, compassionate approach to the work—blending practical skills with genuine understanding. My style is collaborative, straightforward, and focused on helping you move forward at a pace that feels right for you.
Drawing from evidence-based methods such as CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, I work with clients to create meaningful change—emotionally, relationally, and spiritually. My experience includes many years supporting military veterans and their families, helping them heal from invisible wounds while rediscovering connection, purpose, and peace.
In our lives we will be challenged with at times what may seem like insurmountable challenges that keep us awake at night. Sometime our own thoughts go down into a seemingly never ending vortex of negativity. You do not have to go it alone!
Today is the day to start a new journey and to plot a new course in your life.
Start with your call for change today.
