A collaborative approach

You don’t have to go through it alone.

You may feel exhausted from pretending everything is fine while your mind keeps racing toward worst-case scenarios. Reaching out for help can be a powerful and empowering step, even when vulnerability feels difficult.

I provide a safe, supportive space where you can explore your experiences openly, take healthy emotional risks, and move toward meaningful change. Your trust and honesty matter deeply to me, and I focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship that helps you align your life with your values and goals. I work with individuals facing anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and other challenging life experiences.

With over 10 years of direct field experience, I specialize in substance use disorders and addiction, grief, depression, anxiety, trauma, mindfulness, and co-occurring mental health conditions. My clinical approach integrates evidence-based practices with a strong focus on resilience, emotional regulation, and sustainable recovery.

I am trained in EMDR and Mindfulness-Based Relapse Prevention. I support clients in processing trauma, reducing relapse risk, and developing practical coping strategies that promote long-term change. As a veteran, I am especially committed to working with veterans and first responders, providing culturally responsive care that honors the unique challenges these communities face.

My work is collaborative, strengths-based, and grounded in real-world clinical experience, meeting individuals where they are while helping them move toward meaningful growth and healing. If you’re feeling stuck in addiction, overwhelmed by trauma, or exhausted by anxiety and depression, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

What is your approach to therapy?

My approach is direct, compassionate, and focused on helping you build resilience, regain control, and move forward with confidence.

What can clients expect from their first session with you?

Allow yourself to accept support as you move through change. Growth isn’t always easy, but the work you do can help you build resilience, strengthen emotional intelligence, and create a life that truly aligns with who you are.

What sessions can feel like

Professional care without losing the human connection.

Therapy should feel like a collaborative conversation — not a performance. The work can be serious without feeling cold or clinical. The aim is to create enough trust and honesty that you can examine difficult things while still feeling respected, supported and empowered.

  • Practical strategies you can use between sessions
  • A strengths-based focus on what is possible
  • Clear goals shaped around your real life
  • Support for long-term resilience and recovery
