My specialties include in treating sexual abuse and trauma, problem sexual behavior and mood related problems. I am trained in EMDR, a trauma reduction model, Cognitive Processing Therapy and several other evidenced based treatment modalities.

I have been on faculty at Arizona State University, and the University of Phoenix teaching counseling and social work students. I have held several Clinical Supervisor and Administrative positions in several behavioral health agencies in the Phoenix area.
I am a Clinical Member of ATSA, the association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers and I have extensive training in treating problem sexual behavior including compulsive sexual problems and sexual offending for adults and adolescents. I conduct psychosexual risk assessments as well as providing treatment for these problems.
​
I provide Dialectical Behavior Therapy at the agency and I have found this to be highly effective for other kinds of mood regulation problems as well.
