About

I am a VA licensed clinical psychologist who believes that an effective therapeutic relationship blends mutual respect, supportive candor, and gentle humor. I have extensive experience working with Active-Duty service members and retired veterans, first responders, healthcare professionals, and their family members. I work with individuals who are experiencing stress, depression, anxiety, grief, burnout and/or other life stress and challenges. Many of my clients experienced traumatic events, combat or first-responder incidents or forms of physical, sexual, or emotional abuse. These individuals, and frequently their family members, were negatively impacted by symptoms of PTSD. I have extensive experience using evidence-based trauma therapies including Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. I am also a certified provider and ASCH approved consultant for Clinical Hypnosis.
Please know that treatments are available and research shows that evidence-based therapy can improve both personal and professional functioning.
Let’s work together.
