Strictly Off-the-Record Sessions — You Talk, I Listen. No Reports. No Paper Trail.
As a military spouse who has walked this path, I understand the unique challenges that military life brings to individuals and families. My practice provides a completely confidential space where active-duty personnel, veterans, and their loved ones can process their experiences without fear of career or command implications.
"Nothing you share is documented in any way that could affect your career, command status, or VA records."
The Invisible Wounds of War — and Family
Military service creates experiences that can't be easily explained to those who haven't lived them. The impact extends beyond the service member to spouses, children, and entire family systems. These invisible wounds are real, valid, and treatable.
- Hypervigilance and emotional numbness
- Nightmares or flashbacks
- Difficulty reconnecting with family
- Guilt, shame, or moral injury
- Chronic stress in children or partners
My Approach to Military Counseling
I Can't Change What You've Been Through — But I'll Stand With You As You Face It
Together, we acknowledge your experiences with respect and work toward healing at your pace.
We Focus On Practical Healing
• Processing trauma • Emotional regulation tools • Rebuilding connection with family • Reclaiming identity after service
Culturally-Informed Care
I understand military culture, values, and the unique stressors that come with service life.
Support for Military Spouses, Partners & Children
Military trauma doesn't happen in isolation—it impacts the entire family system. Spouses and children often carry invisible burdens that deserve attention and care.
Common signs in spouses/partners:
- Emotional burnout, walking on eggshells
- Deployment parenting stress
- Loneliness and ambiguous loss
- Reintegration confusion
Common signs in spouses/partners:
- Processing deployment cycles
- Frequent moves and transitions
- Understanding parent’s service
- Building resilience and coping skills
I offer therapy for individuals, couples, and adolescents so your whole family can heal.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this therapy connected to the military or the VA?
No. All sessions are 100% private and confidential. I am an independent practitioner with no reporting obligations to military commands, the VA, or any other military entity. Your sessions are completely off-the-record.
Can I get help if I don't want to talk about "the big stuff" yet?
Absolutely. We start where you are, not where anyone thinks you should be. Whether you need help with sleep, relationship stress, or just feeling more like yourself again, we can work on what matters most to you right now.
Do you work with couples or children affected by military service?
Yes. I work with individuals, couples, and teens. Military service affects the whole family, and sometimes the most effective healing happens when we address the family system together.
