Evening Virtual Therapy After Work provided 6pm-10pm. I offer evening therapy for veterans, first responders, high-stress careers, and adults navigating trauma, and addiction recovery. I provide a grounded space where clients can process difficult experiences and rebuild resilience. My approach integrates evidence-based practices, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies tailored to each person’s needs. Whether you are coping with PTSD, anxiety, life transitions, or relationship challenges, I am committed to helping you move toward stability, clarity, and meaningful change.

I know reaching out for support isn’t always easy—especially when you’ve been carrying the weight of stress, trauma, or uncertainty alone. But you don’t have to navigate these challenges by yourself. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for something to change, I’m here to listen and help you take the next step at your own pace.
