Pragmatic Solutions Psychotherapy is an individual practice founded to bring quality treatment to adults struggling with childhood onset trauma, adult onset trauma, and/or anxiety disorders (generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorders).

I practice from a trauma-informed approach and can help you overcome early life stressors that continue to bother you in your relationships and in your daily functioning. Much of the distress in dealing with mental health struggles comes from a lack of knowledge about the disorder you are experiencing, symptoms associated with it, and how to confront these symptoms in a way that brings about healing and growth. As my name suggests, I like to provide practical and tangible skills clients can use outside of the office to help bring about change.

Also, I have extensive experience working with Veterans and First Responders. I have found that these populations respond well to a grounded and practical style. My clients enjoy my straightforward and down-to-earth approach.

I can also help bridge the emotional gap between Military and Paramilitary members and their spouses through couples counseling (this service is limited to these populations). Adult children of these groups are also welcome in my practice, as trauma can be passed on intergenerationally.
