I am dedicated to making a positive impact in the lives of individuals who are battling addiction. My goal is to be a beacon of hope and support for individuals as they embark on their journey to recovery. I am dedicated to empowering them with the tools and strategies needed to overcome addiction and lead fulfilling, healthy lives. I am committed to fostering a safe and non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their challenges, develop coping mechanisms, and ultimately find a path to sobriety.

My approach is rooted in the belief that with awareness, knowledge, and effort you can be empowered to live the life you desire and manifest your goals. I will work with you to develop a stronger, more accepting sense of self through mindfulness, challenging negative cognitions, and validation. I deem myself a counselor, rather than a therapist, one who provides counsel through education, support, guidance, and feedback, with a more directive and accountable approach than a therapeutic exploration of one’s emotional experience. By providing "bumpers," we can work together to identify and dismantle the barriers to your intentions.
