About Me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I have my doctorate in behavioral health with a concentration in integrated health care with over ten years of mental health experience. Also, I am a former active Army military officer and I facilitate doctoral level and undergrad university classes as an adjunct professor. My education includes a Bachelor of Science in psychology, a master’s in health service administration, a Master of Social Work, and a Doctor of Behavioral Health. I use a holistic approach and solution-focused approach when providing therapy to my clients which involves assessing if a client has co-morbid issues such as diabetes and depression or chronic pain and anxiety. I believe it is vital to assist clients with health management while addressing mental health issues. I am caring and compassionate and recognize that there is still a stigma associated with seeking mental health treatment. As a result, I appreciate anyone that takes the time to care for their state of mind as it is just as important as maintaining physical health. Additional treatment modalities that I use include mindfulness practice, dialectal behavior therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and motivational interviewing. In addition to providing services to the civilian population, I also have experience working with the military community including Active Duty, Reserves, National Guard, and Veterans. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, and personality disorders, i.e., borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorders, trauma, sexual abuse, self-esteem issues, and PTSD. I also have experience working with clients dealing with substance abuse issues, adjustment problems, grief and loss, and work-related stressors.
