About me
I am a Psychotherapist,with over 20 years of experience and a Department of Transportation (DOT ),(SAP), Substance Abuse Professional, I work with CDL drivers and employers after a DOT drug or alcohol violation, in a mndatory DOT return- to-duty program . I work both in person and virtual.
As a Licensed Therapist, I work with adults navigating life’s many challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief (including the loss of a beloved pet), and the emotional transitions that come with.both a serious operation and aging.
I practice therapy on line, and I am licensed in: Ohio, Maryland, Kansas , and Missouri.
As a retired U.S.Army Armored Cavalry Officer, I bring both discipline and compassion to my practice. My approach is grounded in Acceptance and Committment Therapy. (ACT) an Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) - offering clients practical tools to mange distress, build resilience and create meaningful, values-based change.
I am known for being direct, down -to-earth, and genuinely engaged. I believe therapy should feel supportive yet empowering - and a touch if humor goes a long way in the healing process. My goal is to helo clients move forward with clarity, ccnfidence, and purpose.
