It's difficult to find the right therapist, with the many different treatment approaches, personalities, and even worldviews. As a Catholic-Christian therapist, I know it's especially challenging to find a therapist who is professional and yet competent to understand the unique experiences and challenges of people of faith. There are many reasons why people might seek services, from feeling stuck to deeply hurting, or simply to pursue a greater degree of flourishing in one's life. Whatever the reason, it is my goal to provide the environment and relationship where healing and growth can occur.

I believe my greatest strength is helping people find the missing keys needed to make positive change. I believe I connect well with my clients by not judging them and by empathizing with their struggles. I am passionate about helping people find the happiness they're looking for.

I have been working in the mental health field for over 40 years. I started working in mental health facilities in my early 20's while I was in college. I have worked with adults and adolescents in all kinds of modalities, yet I seemed to focus more toward young people and their families with substance abuse problems and anxiety. Some of that stems from having to deal with my own addictions in my late teens and finally getting clean and sober at age 20. Thus, I understand what it is like to be overwhelmed by addiction and the need to engage in a recovery process.

Chaos and heartbreak in relationships bring people to me. They are angry and confused as they face both a hidden crisis and the loss of support or connection. Some do not have a choice – there are lawyers or social workers, and orders and mandates to address. Many are filled with shame and self-doubt, so we begin with what I know even before we meet – “your feelings are real” and “you are not losing it – you have been overwhelmed.” You are struggling to accept what you cannot change, but we may help you find the power to seize control of what you can. Whether “you” is an individual or a relationship that seems hopelessly broken.

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.
