Licensed Professional Counseling
I begin with empathy and compassion, bringing advanced clinical training and decades of life experience to my work as a psychotherapist. My journey includes overcoming childhood trauma, teenage homelessness, and significant personal challenges, as well as raising a family, building a lasting marriage, pursuing higher education, and developing a successful business career. These experiences have deepened my understanding of the human condition, resilience, relationships, personal responsibility, and meaningful change. I combine respect, trust, and rapport with this perspective and evidence-based, trauma-informed therapy to help you better understand yourself, regulate emotions, strengthen relationships, and make choices that reflect your values.

Individual Counseling
I offer professional counseling services for adults, tailored to your specific needs. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, stress, effective communication, boundaries, or relationship issues, I utilize emotional regulation strategies and provide trauma-informed therapy to support you.
Couples Counseling
My counseling services for couples are designed to help you and your partner enhance communication, establish healthier boundaries, navigate conflict, and strengthen your relationship. I assist couples in understanding recurring patterns and using emotional regulation strategies to communicate more effectively, while also fostering healthier ways of responding to one another through trauma-informed therapy.
Trauma Counseling
I specialize in trauma-informed therapy. As an EMDRIA-certified EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) practitioner, I use a combination of evidence-based interventions to help clients process and heal from their adverse experiences and reduce distress associated with traumatic memories and associated emotions. My clinical counseling services incorporate my background in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)- informed approaches, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and mindfulness-based emotional regulation strategies.
What Clinical Counseling Addresses
Experiencing anxiety, worry, and chronic stress can significantly impact one's emotional regulation. Such challenges often lead to emotional dysregulation and heightened reactivity. Trauma and post-traumatic symptoms may also arise, causing disruptions in relationships and attachment. Additionally, boundary instability and conflicts in communication can further complicate these issues. Many individuals find themselves battling depression, low mood, and a loss of motivation. In response to panic, feelings of overwhelm, and difficulty self-soothing, clinical counseling services can offer valuable support. By employing emotional regulation strategies and engaging in trauma-informed therapy, individuals can work towards healing and improved mental well-being.
Evidence-based Methods
My theoretical perspective begins with a humanistic approach that prioritizes respect, authenticity, and the client’s lived experience. Building from this foundation, I offer clinical counseling services that utilize various evidence-based modalities to tailor intervention to individual needs rather than relying on a single method. Treatment incorporates EMDR, CBT, DBT-informed strategies, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and trauma-informed therapy protocols. These approaches are applied in a structured, goal-directed manner to enhance emotional regulation strategies, interrupt maladaptive patterns, and support meaningful changes in thought, emotion, and behavior.
