A trauma-informed therapist with a heart for helping people in high-stress, high-responsibility roles, like veterans, first responders, and caregivers. I bring both frontline experience and clinical training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to my work, and I understand how heavy life can feel when you're always the one others rely on.
My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. I offer evidence-based support in a space that’s safe, respectful, and focused on helping you feel heard and empowered.
Whether you're dealing with trauma, burnout, or just trying to find more balance in your life, I’m here to walk alongside you. I believe real healing starts with feeling safe — and grows through trust, skill-building, and honest conversation.
