A warm welcome to you. Whether you are struggling with substance use or a behavioral addiction, or you are concerned about a partner, friend, or family member, I am here to help. I offer trauma-informed counselling, education, assessment, outpatient treatment, inpatient aftercare, referrals, and professional consultation.
I hold multiple credentials as a Certified Addiction Specialist and maintain ongoing professional education in the field of addiction.
I offer a complimentary 15-minute telephone or remote consultation, providing an opportunity for us to connect and determine whether my approach is a good fit for you.
Addiction and support for loved ones are my specialties. With more than 30 years of experience working in a variety of treatment settings and private practice, I bring a depth of knowledge and experience to my work. i am passionate about reducing stigma and creating a therapeutic environment where you can feel respected, understood, and safe.
Reaching out for help takes courage. If you are questioning your relationship with substances or other addictive behaviors, or are struggling with the impact of someone else's addiction, you do not have to navigate it alone. Exploring your options can open the door to new possibilities. I invite you to reach out for a complimentary 15-minute consultation.
