I am a trauma specialist who has an extensive background working with individuals, couples, and families within the military, veteran, widow, and bereavement populations. I work to help each client become an optimally functioning and progressively maturing individual through identifying the specific presenting problem affecting their lives, helping them evaluate how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors may be impacting the way they relate to themselves and others, and exploring how they can become the best version of themselves physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I engage my clients using a holistic perspective that strategically integrates aspects of their biological, psychological, emotional, social, and spiritual life to help them move toward healing and wholeness. I specialize in resiliency, wellness, military unique stressors, trauma recovery, marriage and family therapy, parenting techniques, and bereavement. I strive to establish a strong relationship based on mutual trust, empathy, and respect by balancing confrontation with receptivity. We will collaborate to increase your awareness, challenging your misbeliefs, and motivate you to change any maladaptive behavior to assist you in progressing toward your goals.
