I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with a specialization in Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I value evidence based therapies that are demonstrated to improve mental health. Many of my patients are active duty, veteran and federally employed (civilian). I learned to treat emotional trauma by working with PTSD field experts at the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs. I offer gold-standard PTSD interventions endorsed by the National Center for PTSD and the American Psychological Association: Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Prolonged Exposure (PE).
I practice traditional Cognitive Behavioral therapy. I consider my work in the field of trauma is the foundation of my practice and I attribute this to my success in helping my patients cope with struggles ranging from daily stressors to major mood disorders.
