About
Now serving clients in Alabama and Maryland. Feeling like you have it all together on the outside—but struggling on the inside? You’re not alone, and you don’t have to keep pushing through it by yourself. I help individuals regain control of their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors so they can start living with clarity, balance, and purpose. As a retired Air Force Veteran and former government professional, I understand the pressure to “hold it together” while silently carrying the weight. If you’re ready to move from surviving to truly living, let’s get started. Evidence-based, trauma-informed therapy—tailored to you. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), I provide a judgment-free space where you can safely process, heal, and grow. I also adapt integrative approaches as needed to ensure your care fits you—not a rigid model. Together, we’ll uncover your most authentic self a You’ve likely spent a long time holding it all together for everyone else. This space is where you get to be supported. At your pace, in your way. When it feels right, I’m here to walk alongside you. Credentials & Experience: I am a National Board Certified, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, Certified Grief Therapist and Cognitive Processing Therapy-trained therapist. I also have over 20 years of military experience.
"I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as one of my primary approaches. In our first meeting, we'll take time to understand your concerns and identify the best path forward for you. We'll explore how your thoughts and behaviors are shaping your emotions and day-to-day experiences. I'll help you build practical skills to challenge unhelpful thinking patterns so you can live the life you want!"
