I support individuals navigating substance use and recovery through harm-reduction or abstinence-based approaches that respect choice, autonomy, and lived experience. With over a decade of experience, I work collaboratively to help reduce harm, manage cravings, cope with stress, and build resilience. Our work is guided by your goals—whether abstinence, safer use, or greater balance. I offer a non-judgmental, supportive space and believe substance use is an experience, not a definition of who you are.
In our sessions, I create a safe, open, and non-judgmental space where you can share your experiences at your own pace. I listen with care to understand your story and work with you to develop a personalized plan with practical tools and realistic goals. Together, we build off your existing strengths to support growth, resilience, and lasting change.
“I understand that seeking help for addiction can feel overwhelming and isolating. You don’t have to face it alone. I’m here to listen without judgment, support your journey, and help you take the steps toward healing at your own pace. Reach out when you’re ready—I’m here for you.”
