About

I'm a licensed clinical therapist with over 12 years of professional experience in a number of psychiatric emergency room settings and the Department of Corrections. My experience consists of identifying disorders, resolving symptoms, mitigating risk factors, and crisis management. I am active in providing individual and group therapy to a challenging forensic population; assisting clients in making sense of why they experience certain conditions and symptoms. I particularly specialize in providing PTSD treatment to reduce or resolve symptoms, providing cutting-edge substance use disorder treatment and psycho-education, treatment for Anger Management, Depression, and Anxiety.

My goal in working with clients is to offer a safe, nonjudgemental environment where true support, healing and growth can be optimized for creating the LIFEstyle you desire. My treatment approach is authentic, genuine and reality-based. It takes a positive, motivational approach. My preferred and most often used treatment modalities are CBT, i.e., Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CPT, i.e, Cognitive Processing Therapy and DBT, i.e., Dialectal Behavioral Therapy. Getting into therapy may be one of the best decisions you make towards regaining power and control over your life!
