Therapy for trauma, anxiety, and the patterns underneath them

Who this is for: You may be carrying something that happened, even if it happened a long time ago. It shows up as hypervigilance, a hard time trusting, or a body that still braces for something that already passed.

How I work: Trauma-informed means the pace is set by what you can actually hold, not by a treatment timeline. Nothing here rushes toward insight before there is enough steadiness to make use of it.

Who this is for: The same relationship pattern keeps showing up, even with different people. Trust is hard to build, or hard to hold onto once it is there.

How I work: I look at how early relationships shaped what feels safe or unsafe in connection now, and I use the therapeutic relationship itself as a place to notice and work with those patterns directly.

Who this is for: Your thoughts spiral, loop, or convince you of things that are not quite true, and you want practical tools for catching that in real time.

How I work: We identify the specific thought patterns driving distress, test them against what is actually true, and build more workable responses you can use outside of session.

Who this is for: Emotions feel too big, too fast, or too hard to come back from once they start, and it is affecting your relationships or choices.

How I work: I draw on DBT skills across four areas: staying present, tolerating distress without making it worse, managing emotional intensity, and communicating effectively in relationships.

Who this is for: You already have insight, maybe a lot of it, but the pattern keeps repeating anyway. You want to understand the why underneath it, not just manage the symptom.

How I work: We look at history, early relationships, and the patterns that formed for good reason at the time, often using what shows up between us in the room as information.

Who this is for: You feel like you are at war with yourself. Part of you wants one thing, another part wants the opposite, and the self-criticism can be relentless.

How I work: I work with the different parts of you, including the ones doing the most damage, with curiosity instead of trying to eliminate them. Most parts are protecting something.

Who this is for: You served, or someone in your family did, and the transition out of that world has been harder than expected.

How I work: My experience working directly with military members and veterans shapes how I understand reintegration, trauma tied to service, and the specific weight of that transition.

Who this is for: Something happened, and your nervous system never fully stood down. Intrusive memories, avoidance, or constant alertness are part of daily life now.

How I work: Trauma-informed, paced work that builds enough safety and stability before processing what happened, so the work does not outpace what you can hold.

Who this is for: You or someone you love is navigating cognitive or mood changes after a brain injury, and it has changed how daily life feels.

How I work: My work with adults navigating brain injury and cognitive recovery shapes an approach that meets your actual capacity, and coordinates with medical care where needed.

Who this is for: Your child or teen is struggling with big emotions, behavior changes, or a hard transition, and you want support that understands their developmental stage.

How I work: My background in school social work informs a developmentally grounded approach, often involving family, that meets kids and teens where they actually are.

Who this is for: Across ages, trauma shows up differently, but the need for safety and pacing does not change.

How I work: My experience spans children, adolescents, adults, and veterans, which shapes a trauma-informed approach that adapts to age and circumstance without losing the same core care.

Who this is for: You feel defined by what is wrong, and you are tired of therapy that only focuses on what is broken.

How I work: We start with what is already working: your resilience, your existing skills, your strengths, and build from there rather than starting from deficit.
