Life can be hard, & sometimes we need someone who will listen and work with us through the difficult times.
You don't have to face life's challenges alone. I bring over 15 years of experience helping children, adults, and couples with trauma, & relationships.
My approach is warm & collaborative, using evidence-based therapies including EMDR, CBT, DBT, SFBT, Person-Centered Therapy. I believe trust, feeling heard, & collaboration are the foundation of effective therapy.
I specialize in PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar, Borderline, OCD, Trauma, Crisis, suicidal ideation, marital/relationships, children, Adults, LGBTQ, Anger
I have worked at Brylin Hospital, BestSelf, Endeavor, Restoration Society, Gateway Longview.
Some of the Evidence Based therapies I utilize are EMDR, Person Centered, CBT, Solution Focused, Exposure Therapy and DBT.
A lot of my clients have had bad experiences in therapy and I am very thankful and fortunate when a client tells me “Joe you are the first one who really listens”.
This is my calling and I am very passionate about helping others; so if you are looking for someone who really cares for every client that walks through the door and has life experience I’m here.
