Therapy That Helps You Move Forward

Therapy at Ironwood is practical, collaborative, and focused on helping you make meaningful changes in your life. Together, we'll work to understand what's keeping you stuck, develop useful strategies for addressing it, and build on the strengths you already have.

Treatment is grounded in evidence-based approaches while recognizing that therapy isn't one-size-fits-all.

Trauma & PTSD

Trauma can affect far more than memories. It can change how you respond to stress, relationships, work, sleep, and even how you see yourself. Therapy can help reduce the ways those experiences continue to interfere with your life and help you move forward.

First Responders & Veterans

Some experiences are difficult to explain to someone who hasn't lived or worked in that world. Therapy can address trauma, cumulative stress, moral injury, relationships, identity, and the transition between who you need to be on the job and who you want to be outside of it.

Men’s Mental Health

Therapy doesn't have to mean endlessly talking about feelings without a direction. We can take a practical approach to stress, depression, anxiety, anger, relationships, fatherhood, identity, purpose, and the pressures men often carry quietly.

Therapy isn’t Just for Trauma

You don't need to have experienced a major trauma or crisis to benefit from therapy.

Ironwood also works with adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, career changes, loss, family pressures, and other major life transitions.

Anxiety, Stress & Life Transitions

Sometimes life simply becomes difficult to manage. You may know something needs to change without being entirely sure what that change looks like.

Therapy can help you better understand what's keeping you stuck, develop practical ways to manage stress and anxiety, and approach difficult decisions or transitions with greater clarity and purpose.

My approach is primarily grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). These evidence-based approaches focus on understanding how thoughts, beliefs, emotions, and behaviors interact—and on developing practical ways to create meaningful change.

CBT can be useful for addressing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that keep people feeling stuck. CPT is specifically designed to treat PTSD and focuses on beliefs that can develop following traumatic experiences.

Therapy is collaborative and tailored to the individual. The goal isn't simply to talk about what's wrong—it's to better understand it, determine what can change, and work toward where you want to go.
