Introduction

When life gets complicated and things seem to be out of order we all need to have a safe space to be able to come to. I am a therapist that is interested in listening and can provide that space for you. I am a military veteran that has experience working with clients from all branches of service. Talk therapy can be beneficial to our self-care. We all need to feel like we are cared for and about. Making the decision to attend therapy is a courageous one and I will walk through this journey with you. I enjoy working with young adults and adults dealing with depression, anxiety, OCD, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I specialize in Emotional Focused Training for Married Couples, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and SYMBIS couples assessment for pre-marital and married couples. Additionally, I use Mindfulness-Based Practices, Therapy, Reframing, and ACT (Acceptance Commitment Therapy). I am here to walk with you through the rough patches of life and assist you with finding solutions to help navigate through your life. Although there is no perfect solution, together we will find a way.
