Services
EMDR Therapy
EMDR Therapy uses guided eye movements to reprocess traumatic memories, reducing emotional distress and fostering resilience. This evidence-based approach addresses PTSD, personal injury trauma, and chronic pain's psychological impacts. Clients benefit from structured sessions that promote neural reorganization and emotional healing without requiring detailed trauma discussion.
PTSD Treatment
Specialized PTSD Treatment combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with military-informed care to address trauma symptoms. The practice offers personalized strategies for managing hypervigilance, flashbacks, and emotional dysregulation. Treatment emphasizes safety planning, coping skill development, and gradual exposure to help clients reclaim daily functioning and emotional stability.
Chronic Pain Management
Chronic Pain Management therapy explores the mind-body connection to reduce suffering. Using EMDR and mindfulness techniques, clients learn to reframe pain perceptions and develop coping strategies. The approach addresses trauma-pain interactions while complementing medical treatments, helping individuals improve quality of life and daily functionality.
Personal Injury Treatment
Personal Injury Treatment addresses emotional trauma from accidents or physical harm. The practice employs EMDR to process injury-related memories, reduce guilt/blame patterns, and restore confidence. Clients receive support for managing pain, navigating insurance challenges, and rebuilding self-efficacy through structured therapeutic interventions.
Post-Traumatic Growth Therapy
Post-Traumatic Growth Therapy focuses on transforming adversity into personal development. Through narrative therapy and EMDR, clients identify meaning in traumatic experiences, strengthen coping mechanisms, and cultivate emotional resilience. The process emphasizes strengths-based recovery and renewed purpose following traumatic life events.

How does military experience inform your practice?
My 36-year military career provides unique insight into high-stress professions, enabling specialized support for first responders and military personnel dealing with trauma and operational stress.
What mental health services are covered by insurance?
As a Registered Psychotherapist, my services qualify for most extended health benefits. Clients should verify specific coverage details with their insurance provider.
How long does trauma therapy typically take?
Treatment duration varies by individual needs, but EMDR often shows progress in fewer sessions compared to traditional therapies, with personalized treatment plans developed during initial consultations.
