Addiction Therapists in Escondido, CA
Sitting at the cross roads of life not knowing which direction to take or perhaps cemented in the very spot where we stand, seems to be where many find themselves today. With the weight of past traumas, present stress and frustrations, and future worries of what is to come sitting upon our shoulders, we attempt to carry even more weight from our families and friends. At some point our shoulders begin to give amongst the burden that cannot be carried alone. We find ourselves in distress feeling hopeless, helpless and broken.

As a former Navy Psychologist I work exceptionally well in areas related to military service and traumatic stress and substance use disorders.
I help people by teaching them new mental and physical skills to cope with high stress, anger, communication in relationships and families, or assertiveness. We analyze unhealthy thought, feeling and behavior patterns and learn more balanced ways of thinking and behaving. This leads to a decrease in emotional distress and a sense of well-being or happiness.

I see therapy as a self-discovery process, in which a client seeks to solve problems in a safe and positive environment under the guidance of a professional. I believe that anxiety, depression and negative stress can be resolved more effectively, when there is understanding that basic steps must be taken to first stabilize one's life then one's passion and purpose in life can be addressed to find self-fulfillment. I especially enjoy working with adolescents and adults of all ages, who are in the midst of life transitions.

For more than 30 years, I've worked with people at every stage of healing: those carrying wounds from childhood they've never named, those who have built successful lives yet still feel something is missing, people struggling with the ravages of addiction, and others who simply know life isn't working the way they'd hoped.
If you're tired of repeating the same patterns, I offer structured, honest therapy that helps you understand why those patterns exist and, most importantly, how to start making real changes today. My goal isn't simply to help you feel better, but to help you build a healthier, more authentic, and fulfilling life. Working together, we can make that happen.

I help people understand the patterns they're living in, disrupt them, and create new ones.

The issues I address are typically related to unhealthy sexual behaviors, infidelity, broken relationships, drugs/ alcohol, dishonesty/lying, financial recklessness, and gambling.
My goal for each man I work with is to provide hope and support while facilitating the recovery process. This usually requires us to dig deep and figure out why we engage in destructive behaviors. It also requires us to develop a treatment plan that specifically targets the maladaptive behaviors and reduces the chance of relapse.
