I'm a Counseling Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a Licensed Addictions Counselor, and a Forensic Psychologist. I have spent my career working in child welfare and with complex trauma survivors. I specialize in treating Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders. Clinical treatment approaches are based on Person-Centered Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment Disorders, Complex Traumatology, and Emotion Effect Regulation. You must be committed to changing your life and doing the work required. If not, psychotherapy will not be effective, I assist you in doing the work which is required for symptom reduction.
I provide psychotherapy services to children, individuals, teens, families, and couples. I am a CBT Therapist and I help my patients solve their most concerning problems. If you are ready to do the work required, your symptoms will be reduced. It's a process that requires daily work. You have to do work outside of therapy it's all about self care.
I look forward to meeting you soon and helping you heal and move forward with your life. I regularly conduct evaluations and assessments for state and federal agencies. I am also an expert witness for law firms for defense/prosecution attorneys.

My primary treatment approach is cognitive behavioral therapy and I utilize a strengths perspective. I will determine the most appropriate CBT treatment for you based on your initial assessment. With CBT we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I will help you learn how to push against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
