Military Community Counseling

Military families experience specific challenges

As a Military Family Life Consultant, I assisted military personnel and their families on bases on the mainland US, Hawaii and Europe. With these experiences, I deepened my skills to address the unique challenges and problems that this community faces in their work and personal lives.

Being the daughter of a Marine Colonel myself

Since I grew up as a military dependent, the daughter of a Marine Colonel, I know from my own experience the unique benefits, problems and challenges that military service members and their families face. That include deployments, frequent moves, emotional effects on partners and children, separation from friends and family, finding new supports and reinventing your life over again.

Working together to build the skills, strengths, and resources

I have the knowledge, experience and understanding of military life to support and guide you to find the causes of your distress and to work through them. There is a camaraderie and close-knit community of courageous individuals and the families that support them and when overwhelmed by the demands of this work and life and its effects on marriage and families, there can be loneliness and isolation, depression, PTSD and substance abuse, as well.

We will work together to build the specific skills, strengths, and resources that will help you create a meaningful career and satisfying friendships and family life.
