As an Army veteran and former law enforcement officer, I understand the pressure, trauma, and unspoken expectations that come with service. Many clients come to me feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to turn. I offer therapy for stress, trauma, and relationship challenges, as well as thorough Autism and ADHD evaluations for children, teens, and adults. My approach is grounded, compassionate, and practical. If you’re seeking clarity, growth, and support from someone who truly understands your world, I invite you to reach out.
I help individuals, families, and first responders navigate stress, trauma, and relationship challenges using CBT, DBT, and narrative approaches. I also offer comprehensive psychological evaluations for children and adults, providing clear, practical recommendations. My focus is on building clarity, resilience, and meaningful change.
I know how heavy stress, trauma, or uncertainty can feel, and you don’t have to face it alone. I offer a supportive, grounded space to understand what’s happening and find real steps forward. If you’re seeking clarity, healing, and meaningful change, I invite you to reach out and begin the process.
