I mostly work with adults and adolescents who struggle with addiction, depression, and anxiety.
What would it look for you to live a life that more closely aligns with your values and potential? Sometimes we find ourselves feeling stuck as we repeat the same self-defeating thoughts and behaviors. We try to cope with the inevitably uncomfortable feelings that come with being human, but our coping mechanisms just don't seem to work anymore. I want to help you identify those sticking points and cultivate new, healthier ways of coping. In short, I want to to help you feel more alive again.

Aside from my personal experiences in life, I have the education, training, and professional experience working with teens and adults managing anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, co-dependency, and having a hard time adjusting to life circumstances.
I work alongside people that are seeking guidance and understanding on managing anxiety, depressed moods, negative thoughts, uncertainty, alcohol & drug use, or any other uncomfortable state of mind. Some people are interested in exploring their past and identifying how it affects them in their current life, others just want an objective person to speak to and process their thoughts with. There's no one specific reason for seeking out a therapist/counselor and nothing has to be "wrong" in order to do so.

Are you prepared to become the best version of yourself? I have been a professional counselor for 15 years and in my experience the only requisite for transformation is a willingness to be open to the change process. Clients that I work with typically feel disconnected and unsatisfied. Whether it be professional stagnation, substance abuse, marital or interpersonal conflict, the person I serve typically feels their lives are not aligning with their expectations or goals. I work in a direct and supportive manner with clients to align behaviors and goals with personal values.

I offer different types of therapeutic avenues to explore, rework, release and address challenges old or new. We decide the timetable and scope of therapy together whether very focused change is desired or more in depth reworking is wanted. Some people also use therapy to maintain positive gains and have a unique place to speak/ find the truth in a safe, trusting environment. The focus is on enhancing and building on strengths to realize potential based on needs.

Addiction Therapists
What is the best therapy for addiction?
Addiction treatment will be tailored to the individual. People seeking help for addiction—whether with a psychotherapist, in an outpatient clinic, or in a residential program—should expect to engage in multiple types of treatments, sometimes including medication. For anyone recovering from addiction, avoiding situations in which one has typically used a substance is essential, as is the support of close connections. Since substance use disorders tend to co-occur with underlying mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression, those must also be addressed as part of any recovery plan.
How long does therapy for addiction take?
There is no set timeline for recovery from addiction. Patients and their families should expect the work to last several months, if not longer. Residential treatment programs may be based on a stay of 30, 60, or 90 days, with continuing work after release, but only about 1 percent of people are treated in such facilities. Ceasing use is just the first step; therapy to help maintain abstinence and effect behavior change must follow. The process of recovery, neuroscience has shown, involves brain cells recovering the capacity to respond to natural sources of reward and restore control over the impulse to use. Another definition of recovery is restoring voluntary control over one’s substance use and retaking all of one’s previous responsibilities.
How effective is drug addiction treatment?
Substance use disorders are treatable and remission is achievable for many who seek recovery; by some estimates, more than three-quarters of people who become addicted to alcohol or drugs recover. But that success rarely occurs quickly or on a set timeline; relapse is not only common, but many therapists and clinicians view it as a normal part of the process—not always a sign that a person has returned to addiction, but a signal that their treatment should be adjusted to help them regain control. Overall, research suggests, five years after the end of substance use, one’s risk of relapse is no greater than that of others who had not faced addiction. Other experts believe that complete abstinence is not the only measure of recovery, and that, through effective treatment, many people can learn to control their use.
How can you get addiction treatment for someone?
The most important factor in recovery from addiction is widely understood to be an individual’s commitment to change. For that reason,“interventions” in which friends and family gather to urge or force someone to begin immediate treatment often backfire; even when such efforts do lead someone to begin treatment, they may be less likely to stay than those who are self-driven. Still, family members can play an important role in supporting an individual who seeks help and can take part in family therapy as one element of a loved one’s treatment.
