Hi there, I'm Brett!

You're here because something is keeping you from living the adventurous life you deserve. Let me help you resolve it. I'm a combat veteran and former law enforcement officer with an intimate understanding of trauma—both clinically and personally.

My focus

My ideal clients are individuals navigating trauma and personality disorders. I provide compassionate, individualized care tailored to their unique experiences, ensuring they feel seen, safe, and supported throughout their healing journey.

My approach

My style is direct. I primarily use dialectical behavior therapy but switch modalities when needed. I'm a Clinical Hypnotherapist utilizing Ericksonian and transformational concepts. My experience conducting emergency psychiatric assessments has sharpened my diagnostic skills and helped me unravel difficult cases.
