I am a Department of Veterans Affairs psychologist specializing in treating individuals with PTSD and Substance Use Disorders. I have found MI invaluable in working with Veterans who are considering changes in their substance use and engaging in treatment for PTSD. In my private life I enjoy time with my family and spending time enjoying the outdoors birding, paddleboarding, hiking, surfing and fishing.
I have been involved in MI training and consulting in VA since 2013, and also train and consult outside VA at Universities and in the private sector. I am passionate about teaching and training and welcome inquiries about scheduling trainings.
