Taking new Client's and offering telehealth. As a therapist I understand that people's lives can get off track, sometimes leaving them feeling stuck and unsure about which direction to take. Counseling is an opportunity to discover what is preventing you from moving forward. Whether it is events from the past, current challenges, or that your future looks bleak, we can take the journey together to discover what is blocking your ability to move forward. As a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist I understand that not everything that happens in our lives is totally our fault.
My goal is to help you gain insight into what is enforcing the desire to continue using despite the negative consequences. I have over 10 years experience in the field of addiction and mental health, and look forward to helping you face any challenges that may stand in your way.
My style of counseling is based on person-centered and solution focused theories, utilizing motivational approaches to assist clients in resolving the complications that addiction has created in their lives. Afternoon evening and weekend appointments are available.
