Alcohol Use Therapists in Rock Hill, NY

Are you feeling stressed, depressed, or emotionally drained? Are you struggling with marital conflict and seeking help to improve your relationship? Are you a parent who is struggling with your child's behavior and seeking advice from an experienced expert? Are you ready to regain control over your emotions and improve your outlook on life? Look for further!

We get focused, establish goals and achieve them together. This is done in a warm and more casual manner. I look at people within four areas: Psychological, Biological, Sociological & Spiritual.

I am a nurse practitioner holding dual board certifications in psychiatry and family medicine. I specialize in the medical management of mental disorders of children, adults and the elderly. My experience includes treating depression, anxiety, trauma, psychosis, attention deficit disorder, dementia, substance abuse, among other conditions. In addition I am registered to certify patients for Medical Marijuana. For those that prefer to address their issues from home, telehealth is available. I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management.

My commitment is to help you feel better and learn ways to change problematic patterns within the first few sessions. I combine different methods (talk therapy, hypnosis, EMDR and Somatic Experiencing) to help people make positive changes in their lives. I have 30+ years experience, with specialization in relationship problems, sexuality issues, and recovery from childhood and adult trauma. My approach is highly interactive. Sessions involve feedback and teaching of methods and skills to help you get your life back on track.

Feeling hurt, lost, or anxious, wondering if you want to wake up tomorrow, trapped in addiction or chronic pain, torn between choices, in or recovering from a hurtful relationship, alone, or like life is against you?

Are you wondering if your drug or alcohol use is becoming a problem? Do you know it is a problem, but cannot seem to control it? Maybe you engage in a different sort of self-sabotaging behavior, such as binge-eating, compulsive spending or undermining your success at work. Self-sabotaging behaviors, including drug and alcohol misuse, are actions we choose but they feel automatic and inescapable. Often, they serve to maintain status quos, prevent growth, and imprison us in unhappy situations. I understand the pain and hopelessness that comes from repeating the same mistakes. It is never too late to change a limiting pattern.

Congratulations! Taking the first steps toward living a healthier, fulfilling life takes courage. Just scrolling through therapist profiles shows your motivation for something different. I use a variety of treatment modalities, including DBT and EMDR, incorporating mindfulness to help you reach your goals. Let’s work together to figure out what is causing you to be stuck in this season of your life and how you can move past the barriers to live your best life.

Substance and Alcohol use is an all too common experience; millions struggle every year. It’s not a personal or moral failing but rather a complex health issue that requires support and resources. Connecting with medical professionals specializing in substance use disorder targets your specific experience and creates meaningful connection in sessions. Talking it through can spark growth, leading to lasting change so you can feel better. I also specialize in Anxiety, Life Changes, Panic Attacks, and Depression. I welcome you, regardless of where you’re starting.

I believe that change and healing come through relationships; our relationship with self as well as our relationships with others. It is because of this belief that I approach my work as a collaborative venture that requires large amounts of both compassion and curiosity. It is my goal to create an atmosphere where these qualities can be nurtured and to provide the individual with the support and space to reflect on old patterns of behavior and the opportunity to respond in new ways that allow for a more fully realized and authentic way of living.

HAVE YOU OR OTHERS HAD CONCERNS ABOUT YOUR ALCOHOL USE? WHEN FEELING ANGRY OR FRUSTRATED DO YOU USE ALCOHOL OR OTHER DRUGS TO HELP RELIEVE YOUR NEGATIVE FEELINGS? Misusing alcohol, drugs, food or engaging in behaviors like excessive gambling or shopping to cope with strong emotions, may become habitual and as problematic as the negative feelings they are meant to alleviate.
