I believe that everyone has a right to live the life that they desire. However, life does not always work out how we hope. We cannot predict the events that will happen to us and how those events will impact our lives. We do, however, have the ability to choose how we will respond to those events. I believe that as a therapist, I get to be a partner with people as they seek to change their lives for the better. I believe that education, practical application, evidence-based techniques, and a focus on measurable outcomes is the fastest way to achieve the client’s goals. I believe that therapy should only be for as long as needed, with a focus on achieving the client’s goals.

As a therapist I try to create a comfortable and relaxed environment for you. I use an eclectic style that leans on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), mindfulness, and a little bit of humor sprinkled in. As a former Marine I personally understand the unique experiences that veterans and active duty service members go through. Additionally, I have been working with law enforcement, firefighters, and other front-line workers to help them with the complexities that their jobs can bring to their lives and families.
