Life can be hard, especially when what used to make it bearable just doesn't cut it anymore. The fact is that addiction is complicated. It is messy, tricky, and heavily stigmatized. I'm here to provide you with empathy, suggestions, and stability. In short, counseling. You've come this far, so consider taking that leap and giving something else a try. Recovery doesn't start with stopping. Recovery starts when you wonder if there's another way. I provide drug and alcohol addiction counseling as well as Department of Transportation SAP services. Call me for a free consultation and see if I'm a good fit for you.

Let me help you "Design Your Life!" We tend to design certain parts of our lives, maybe where we're going to live, or what kind of job we want to have. But when it comes to the most important things: relationships, marriages, parenting, and our own happiness, we often tend to just land where we land. Then we wonder why we are not happy or why things are not working out the way we had hoped. My goal is to help you get in the "driver's seat" of your life, to find true fulfillment, to "Design Your Life."

Addiction is a confusing, overwhelming, & powerful force. It is all- encompassing, taking over slowly or quickly in every area of one's life. Before long you don't know which way is up and are just struggling to get through the day...or hour. Together we uncover patterns of behavior that no longer serve you, understand why you developed these patterns, and discover new ways of living. I support individuals in rediscovering who they are and what they are passionate about.
