With over 25 years of experience in the mental health field, I specialize in working with law enforcement, first responders, and those impacted by high-stress and traumatic environments. I am vetted and approved by the National Fraternal Order of Police as a Wellness Provider and am licensed to serve clients in Ohio, California, and Vermont. As a Trauma-Responsive Therapist, my approach is client-
centered, strength-based, and focused on practical solutions that support healing, resilience, and long-term well-being. My work is rooted in evidence-based practices and guided by deep respect for the individuals I serve. Specialized Training & Certifications
EMDRIA Certified Therapist & EMDRIA Approved Consultant
I provide Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a powerful, research-backed therapy proven effective in treating post-traumatic stress injury (PTSI), anxiety, depression, and other trauma-related concerns. HeartMath Trauma-Sensitive Certified Practitioner
Using HeartMath technology, I help first responders and others build heart rate coherence, improving self-regulation and resilience. This approach supports the integration of emotional, cognitive, and physiological responses for improved stress management and performance. Certified ASAP Facilitator (Acute Stress Adaptive Protocol)
I offer ASAP as an early intervention strategy for individuals and groups, available as early as three days post-critical incident. ASAP helps stabilize and build internal resources to promote recovery and prevent long-term distress. A Trust-Based Approach
I understand that seeking help is a courageous and often challenging step—especially for those in high-demand roles. That’s why I offer a free initial phone or telehealth consultation. It's a simple, no-obligation way for us to connect and determine whether working together is the right fit for you.
