It is a smart, courageous, move to reach out for help. Whether you've a dependence on alcohol, an over reliance on pain pills, using porn excessively, or your professional drivers licensed got dinged, I am certified to help. I have worked in the mental health/addictions field for the past 40 years. During this time I've earned three Masters Degrees and a doctorate. I'm a Certified DOT SAP and a Certified Advanced Alcohol/Drug Counselor. I worked as the Employee Assistance Professional at AU for 8 years, and am well-versed and experienced with employment issues. I have many years' experience working with couples.
I am a certified trauma-informed counselor. Whether you realize it or not, you may have experienced things in your past that affects your daily life and all of your relationships. It would be my privilege to help you figure out what those are and guide you to a better life and a happier you.
I sincerely hope that if you are looking for help, you make the decision to reach out and get it, even if it is not from me. After all, the most important thing is that you get the help you need to get back to living the life you deserve.
