**Telehealth Video sessions are available** Are you having trouble controlling your drinking but feel like "rehab" isn't for you? Have loved ones in your life pleaded with you to stop? Is your alcohol or drug use causing relationship issues? Anxiety problems? I know exactly how you’re feeling. Alcohol or drug abuse can be extremely difficult to manage on your own. For the last 19 years I’ve been helping clients navigate the personal recovery process and the trials and tribulations they come with it. If you are in a place in your life where you are ready to make some needed changes, I can help you be free from the grips of addiction.

My focus is on providing multi-culturally affirming therapy to help people achieve their therapeutic goals and cope with struggles they face. I use an integrative and collaborative approach to deeply understand my client’s concerns, meet people where they are, and support their specific needs from therapy.

Currently accepting new clients. If you're looking for a space intended for yourself to unpack emotions, make sense of troubling situations, and show up for yourself, then I'll co-create one with you. I know that initiating therapy can be a scary or difficult thing, and I appreciate your commitment to finding the best provider for yourself. Just know that I offer you absolute acceptance of your identities, flaws, goals, and growth.

If you struggle with stress and anxiety or have difficulty coping with the sometimes problematic or troubling situations in life, please know that these experiences are not necessary...What if, when you awake tomorrow morning, you could begin to live a stress and anxiety free life? It's your choice, and I can show you how. If you have a personal history of trauma and abuse, you CAN overcome it. Your personal life and relationships can...and will improve, as you find your true happiness. Why wait? You can begin to change your future NOW? Call to find out how.

The goal of therapy is to develop an awareness of our emotional patterns and recognize where they are not serving us. Many of us are operating within a problem saturated narrative that needs to be rewritten. It is my experience that the problems don’t occur in a bubble. I believe that issues are systemic, therefore I will often incorporate partners or members of the Family in the healing and growth process. I find my training in mediation practices further equip me to deal effectively with dysfunction family communication patterns.

Do you find yourself struggling with episodes of sadness? Do you feel anxious or have difficulty managing your emotions? Have you lost interest in activities you once enjoyed? Have you gone through a traumatic experience and continue to have flashbacks? If so, I can help you make sense of your past experiences so that you can live a life full of joy. You have the ability to live the life you so desire, and today you are one step closer to fulfilling that dream.

My expertise as a therapist is in creating a safe and trusting connection as the foundation of our work. Are you struggling with anxiety, addiction, trauma, depression or multiple issues? Through collaboration, attunement and curiosity, explore the life you want, what interferes with achieving it, and how life experiences influence relational dynamics and perceptions of the world. I support this process of exploration towards a more fulfilling and meaningful life, with healthier connections to self and others. Treatment focus is also on strengths and experiencing a sense of empowerment, resiliency, aliveness and joy in your life.

I specialize in recovery from alcohol, drug, and gambling addiction and resolving the issues that have contributed to it. I understand your feelings of hopelessness and despair and how difficult it is to move forward despite your willingness to change. You believe that your way of coping isn't working anymore, that you've tried so hard to get through this alone, and you're tired of struggling and hurting the ones you love. You deserve healing, professional support, and expert guidance, and I know how to help.

My intention is to help clients experience healthy, fulfilling relationships with themselves and the people in their lives. I work to gain your trust & be your ally as you take on life's challenges. Our therapeutic collaboration is filled with empathy & compassion. Our work together will have respect, gentleness & consideration as you search for the meaningful, integrated life you deserve. It's your process, whether you're struggling to find your way back to the life you enjoy, or discovering a life you want to live. I work with individuals, couples, and families.

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Are you ready for a change? Would you like to learn more about yourself? Take steps towards accomplishing those goals that have been brushed aside because of obstacles? My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. Although we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to understand and resolve challenges in your life. We will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

Frustrated? Having difficulty sleeping? Feeling overwhelmed, helpless or hopeless? With over 23 years of experience, I can help you understand the causes of such problems and set you on a path of healing. There are many sources of stress that can affect the brain and immune system and impair your capacity to cope. In my work with individuals and groups, I work with you to achieve overall wellbeing of mind, body and spirit.

On a daily basis we are faced with the choice to embrace our truth or to just live in autopilot blending into a routine of existence. That was me many years ago. Totally stuck, dissatisfied, angry, anxious and unhappy. I knew I had to take responsibility of my own wellbeing. There was a missing link between my day to day reality and the truth of who I was. Over the past 3 decades I have been using the same techniques that got me out of my stuck states to support my clients to live a life of choice and be fulfilled and happy.

Welcome to my practice! I feel privileged to be in a position to guide people through various problems, in search of solutions and geared toward healthy living. I have learned that the most important component to creating a healthy therapeutic process is the meaningful relationships that we create along the way. I currently utilize a strength-based approach in my work with children, adolescence, and families-the focus of the work is identifying and building from the strengths of the individual. I value the collaborative effort that goes into developing a treatment plan; collaboration allows us to experience movement toward pathways of transformation.
