Collaborative, Compassionate, Strengths-Based Care
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) specializing in Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), EMDR, couples therapy, trauma recovery, and addiction treatment. With over 15 years of experience, I am dedicated to helping individuals and couples navigate anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, relationship issues and addiction - including pornography addiction. Whether you’re feeling stuck, disconnected, or weighed down by past experiences, I offer a collaborative, strength-based approach to healing and transformation.
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) & EMDR Integration
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a powerful tool for emotional and psychological breakthroughs. KAP is especially beneficial for clients who feel stuck after attempting other traditional therapies, offering new perspectives and deeper access to healing when other approaches have not been effective. However, TRUE transformation happens through integration. As an EMDR-certified therapist, I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help clients process and solidify the insights gained during KAP sessions, promoting lasting change and deeper healing.
Couples Therapy & Addiction Recovery
I am trained in the Gottman Method for couples therapy, helping partners strengthen their connection, rebuild trust, and navigate challenges with practical, research-based strategies. I also specializes in addictions, including pornography addiction, guiding individuals toward freedom from destructive patterns.
Supporting Veterans & First Responders
Having worked extensively with military personnel and veterans, I understand the unique challenges that come with service, including PTSD, combat stress, moral injury, and the transition to civilian life. I provide a supportive, informed approach to help veterans reclaim their mental health and well-being.
