Listening for what is not said, is often as important as what is said. No one therapeutic approach suits every client's need. I tailor my approach based on what's best for the individual. My success with sober clients and others suffering from addictive disorders comes from my willingness to help them navigate the realities of life. Sometimes psychotherapy alone cannot cure mood disorders, just as drugs for depression and anxiety are less effective without concurrent psychotherapy.
Worried about anonymity? I offer in-home services.
My treatment specializations include: Addictive Disorders, Depression, and Anxiety;
Family Counseling; Trauma & PTSD-Focused; LGBTQIA+ Affirmative; Brainspotting & Somatic Body Work; Weekend Intensives (Individuals & Couples); Experiential Therapy
If there has been one thread woven throughout my career and life, it has been my commitment to helping others find their way, whether through the therapeutic process or non-traditional group experience.
