I specialize in the treatment of substance use disorders, with a focus on opioid dependence and medication-assisted treatment, including Suboxone. I provide structured, evidence-based care designed to support recovery, reduce cravings, and improve overall stability. My services include comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, ongoing medication management, and the integration of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques. Treatment plans are individualized and tailored to each client’s needs, goals, and stage of recovery.
I work with adults experiencing opioid use disorder, alcohol use concerns, and co-occurring mental health conditions such as anxiety, ADHD, and mood disorders. Addressing these underlying conditions is an important part of supporting long-term recovery and preventing relapse.
I offer a nonjudgmental and confidential environment where clients feel respected and understood. Whether you are seeking to begin treatment, restart recovery, or strengthen your current progress, I provide guidance and support every step of the way.
