Structured, trauma-informed therapy for active-duty service members and veterans
When Service Leaves a Mark
Military service often involves sustained exposure to stress, responsibility, and trauma. Over time, these experiences can affect the nervous system, relationships, and sense of control — sometimes long after active service ends.
Many service members and veterans seek therapy not because something is “wrong,” but because the strategies that once ensured performance and survival no longer support daily life. Therapy provides a structured space to address what has accumulated and move forward with greater stability and clarity.
As a licensed therapist and military veteran, I bring both clinical training and firsthand understanding of the realities of military service.
Who This Work Is For
I work with active-duty service members, veterans, and those transitioning out of military service, including individuals from all branches and roles.
Common concerns include hypervigilance, irritability, sleep disruption, emotional numbing, relationship strain, and difficulty adjusting to life after sustained high-stress service.
A Practical, Structured Approach
My work is trauma-informed, somatic, and directive. Sessions are active and collaborative, focusing on how the nervous system has adapted to prolonged stress and threat.
Rather than just talking about experiences, we work on regulation, pattern awareness, and practical strategies that translate into daily life. The goal is not simply coping, but long-term resilience and meaningful change.
FAQ
Do you work with military and combat-related trauma?
Yes. I work with veterans experiencing combat trauma, operational stress, and service-related challenges, using approaches that respect military culture and experience.
Do I need a diagnosis or VA referral to start therapy?
No. You do not need a diagnosis or referral. Therapy can begin based on your goals and concerns, regardless of VA involvement.
Is therapy focused on symptoms or practical functioning?
Therapy focuses on both. The goal is improved day-to-day functioning, emotional regulation, relationships, and overall stability—not just symptom reduction.
Can therapy help with reintegration, relationships, or anger?
Yes. Therapy commonly addresses reintegration challenges, relationship strain, anger, and difficulty adjusting to civilian life.
What Working Together Looks Like
Therapy is tailored to your needs and may incorporate evidence-based and nervous-system-focused approaches such as Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Brainspotting, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and solution-focused and somatic methods. These tools are applied pragmatically and at a pace that prioritizes safety, stability, and forward progress.
You can expect a steady, professional therapeutic relationship with clear structure and direction. Sessions are active and goal-oriented, respectful of your lived experience without pathologizing, and focused on building long-term resilience rather than short-term symptom management.
If you are a member of the military or a veteran considering support, I invite you to schedule a consultation to determine whether this approach is the right fit.
