My Mission

At Next Mission Recovery, my mission is to provide compassionate, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed care that helps individuals make sense of their experiences—without stigma or judgment.
Rooted in scientific research and guided by evidence-based treatments like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), my approach supports:

  • A deeper understanding of how trauma affects the body, mind, and relationships

  • A collaborative space that prioritizes insight, trust, and emotional safety

  • Respect for your identity, autonomy, and lived experience

  • Recovery that feels meaningful, goal-oriented, and sustainable

My Approach (ACT-Led, Trauma-Informed)

I lead with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)—building psychological flexibility so difficult thoughts, memories, or body alarms don’t run the day. Depending on your goals and readiness, I integrate:

  • CBT: Updating trauma-shaped beliefs; sleep and routine anchors; gentle behavioral experiments.

  • CPT: Systematically examining beliefs about safety, trust, power/control, esteem, and intimacy to reduce shame and restore meaning.

  • PE (When Appropriate): Choice-based, titrated exposure—only with stabilization and consent.

  • Mindfulness & Grounding: Present-moment skills for regulation and reconnection.

Ready to Begin?

If you’re seeking trauma-informed therapy in California or Virginia, schedule a complimentary consultation. We’ll talk about goals, pacing, and whether working together feels like the right next step.

  • If you want flexibility and a blend of approaches, integrative therapy may fit. If you prefer a time-limited, step-by-step protocol with clear milestones, an evidence-based psychotherapy (EBP) like CPT can be a strong choice. We can also combine them (e.g., integrative work with a focused CPT block) and adjust over time.

  • We’ll focus on values-guided actions, willingness skills, and present-moment awareness. The aim is to expand your life even when hard memories or sensations show up—so your day is guided by what matters, not by avoidance.

  • Yes. Many clients do both. We’ll pace it—stabilization and regulation first, then meaning-making and relationship skills so changes hold up in daily life.

  • No. PE is optional and used only when appropriate and chosen. We can accomplish a lot with ACT, CBT, and CPT; if and when PE makes sense, we’ll prepare and consent before we try it.

  • A private space, stable internet, and a device with camera/audio. Headphones help. I’ll share brief tech tips before your first session so it feels smooth and secure. Learn more
