As a veteran and clinical social worker, I understand firsthand how service—whether in the military, law enforcement, firefighting, EMS, or other high-stress roles—can leave lasting impacts. I specialize in working with veterans, first responders, and others who are carrying the weight of trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, or other mental health challenges that affect daily life.
You don’t have to carry it all alone.
In our work together, I aim to create a space where you can feel safe, understood, and supported—without judgment.
I take an integrated approach to therapy, using a mix of evidence-based modalities including EMDR, CBT, CPT, DBT, and ACT. We’ll tailor our work to what fits you best, whether that’s building skills for managing emotions, processing difficult experiences/losses, or learning how to reconnect with a sense of purpose and self.
You’ve spent a lot of your life showing up for others. This is a space where you can show up for yourself. Healing isn’t about forgetting or pretending—it’s about finding new ways to live with meaning and clarity, even when life has been heavy.
If you’re ready to take that next step, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
