Professional Bio
I am a certified EMDRIA therapist who specializes in trauma. I work with children and adults, including veterans and their families, using a variety of techniques which include art and play therapy, EMDR, cognitive processing, trauma focused CBT, family systems, among other modalities. I also complete psychological evaluations pertaining to personal injury claims and defense base act claims, as well as diagnostic evaluations to help individuals understand why they are having difficulties at school, home, work, or in their relationships. These diagnostic evaluations often result in 504 service agreements, referrals for IBHS, FBMH, or social skills groups, among other resources, as well as follow up outpatient therapy. I also assist children and young adults with school related difficulties related to test anxiety, ADHD, Autism, and other struggles that interfere with functioning.
I have a special interest in working with veterans and military contractors, including people from Iraq and Afghanistan who worked in support of the US forces as interpreters, cultural advisors, and in other roles. I also am trained as a child clinical psychologist and have an interest in working with people of all ages.
