I'm a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in the treatment of anxiety, PTSD /trauma, stress, and relationship issues. Are you feeling anxious about the future or stuck in the past? Do you put on a 'calm and collected' front so that others don't see you struggle? Do worries keep you up at night? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you've come to the right place. Often what keeps us stuck in distress are beliefs or old patterns of emotions. But amazing things can happen when we take a chance to try something new.

Something can happen when even familiar things are spoken about and explored in detail in treatment. I'll listen to you carefully and differently from others. My job is to bring out the underlying questions and dilemmas that shape your experience, with the aim of supporting and sometimes challenging you in the work of seeing your life, and what is possible, in new ways. An effective therapy isn't always easy, but when it's working, it can be deeply engaging, moving, even surprising. The result can be relief, greater vitality, and a different, surer sense in handling life's inevitabilities.

Feelings have a way of getting to us despite our best efforts. Cultural prescriptions for navigating our emotional experiences can easily lead to confusion and frustration. The recent crisis has further shaken the foundations of our security and stirred up previously hidden inner conflicts for many. If you are struggling with feelings of sadness, anxiety, fear, loss, insecurity or relationship difficulties psychotherapy is likely an excellent option for you.

Alcohol Use Therapists

Are there specific medications for alcohol use?

There are oral medications approved to treat alcohol use disorder—such as disulfiram, acamprosate, and naltrexone, which also comes in an injectable form. These medications do help people reduce their drinking as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone helps reduce cravings, disulfiram can make a person feel sick when they drink, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.

How do alcohol recovery or rehabilitation programs work?

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

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 alcohol use reduce the amount of alcohol they intake. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.
