The experience of trauma and PTSD can impact people in a variety of ways, including:

​

• nightmares    

• avoiding people, places, and activities    

• guilt and self-blame

• substance use problems

 

Because trauma can affect people in so many different ways, I begin treatment by working to understand you and your experiences.  Then, drawing on my training at the National Center for PTSD and my work with people who have experienced sexual trauma, combat, domestic violence, childhood abuse, and many other kinds of trauma, I make treatment recommendations specific to you.

​

Examples of evidence-based treatments I offer for trauma and PTSD include:

• Cognitive Processing Therapy

• Prolonged Exposure Therapy

• Concurrent Treatment of PTSD and Substance Use Disorders Using Prolonged Exposure

• Skills Training for Affective and Interpersonal Regulation
