Psychological trauma work is my specialty. Sources of trauma include: accidents, traumatic loss, complicated grief, childhood trauma (including that which has been buried for years), COSR (combat/operational stress reaction), PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), ASR (acute stress reaction), and secondary trauma from service as (and/or with) the Military, various Agencies, Medical / Frontline / First Responders, Search & Rescue, Firefighters and Law Enforcement personnel, among others. You are not alone.
Values inspired by my WWII combat-veteran father and RN mother have informed my work w/First Responders, LEO, & military mbrs since 2007 at Evans Army Hospital, Ft Carson, CO; inpatient chemical dependency and military PTSD programs at Cedar Spgs Hospital, and in private practice.
Trained in CPT, CBT, EMDR, Psychodrama, Equine-Assisted Growth & Learning, and family systems, I also spent 18 years as another type of counselor - a trial and appellate lawyer. Let's talk and see if we're a good fit.
