Experience & Credentials

Relevant ExperienceI have significant experience caring for populations who face chronic job stress, including first responders, healthcare workers, and teachers. I have had the privilege of working with professionals who are managing chronic PTSD. My practice is geared toward identifying and treating the trauma responses that interfere with my clients' quality of life, including strategies to turn off the "work brain" and carve out a healthy work/life balance. I take a holistic approach to managing stress, including getting back to the basics. Sleep, exercise, and nutrition - combined with mental health therapy - can revitalize life!

Treatment ApproachMy practice is focused on the whole person, including physical health, family health, and balance in life. I have had the privilege of working with first responders who struggle with the reality of seeing the absolute worst in people on a daily basis, yet still need to find a way to "suit up and show up" the next day - to family, to life, to work. I use a blend of direct, to-the-point conversations (Solution-Focused Therapy), coupled with my knowledge of trauma ... with some humor sprinkled in.
