Life is a journey! During this process, you may experience emotional and psychological distress, spiritual imbalances, physical ailments and relationship challenges. I believe each individual possesses the capacity to use internal and external resources to achieve a balanced level of living. In my role as a therapist, I work with issues related to depression, anxiety, substance use, coping skills, self-esteem, relationships, and grief. I view therapy as a "collaborative process" designed to be one of many resources to assist you in achieving your identified goals.

Are you dealing with issues of the heart, mind, or spirit? Sometimes JUST TALKing about your problems can make the difference. Life is too short to be in an unhealthy, anxiety provoking situation that leaves you depressed and unhappy. With over 20 years in the counseling field, it has been my experience that we are what we believe. Those same beliefs prevent many from seeking counseling because of misconceptions.

An ideal client is committed to the therapeutic process; understanding that changing behaviors and thoughts that are problematic are vital parts of therapy. Making these changes can help in fostering a more fulfilling and enriching life. I believe in empowering clients through developing self-awareness and control; this helps to teach that he/she is the real reason positive change happens. I offer encouragement and development of healthy boundaries in a nonjudgmental environment. I have been employed in social services for over 20 years in various settings; inpatient/outpatient programs, correctional department, & private practice.

Substance Use Therapists

How do substance and drug recovery or rehabilitation programs work?

In inpatient programs, individuals live in a facility with other clients in recovery; in outpatient programs, individuals reside at home. These facilities are staffed with healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, psychologists, counselors, and psychotherapists. Staff often also includes people who have recovered themselves, serving as mentors and guides. These programs may use abstinence, harm reduction, detoxification, psychotherapy, and other methods.

How do 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?

Members of 12-step programs help each other reach abstinence and work to maintain it. These programs promote complete change in the individual’s emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual perspectives. Some programs require that new members attend 90 meetings in 90 days. Many people do attend these programs in conjunction with their work in psychotherapy; the combination of therapy along with 12-step can be extremely effective.

How does harm reduction combined with psychotherapy work?

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, harm reduction prevents death, injury, disease, overdose, and substance misuse. People who choose harm reduction for substance use reduce the amount of drugs they consume. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.

Are there specific medications for substance and drug use?

There are medications approved to treat substance use disorder—such as buprenorphine, methadone, naltrexone, and acamprosate. These medications do help people cope with substance use as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone can help reduce cravings, methadone is an opioid medication used to treat severe pain, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.
