You're starting to wonder if you drink too much, and you’re not sure what to do about it. When you try on the word “addiction”, it doesn’t feel quite right, because you meet your responsibilities most of the time. But someone you love expressed concern or maybe even gave you an ultimatum if you don't cut back or quit. You dread the thought that they're right because you can't remember the last day you didn't have a drink, or several, and you don't know how you would cut back or quit even if you decided you wanted to.

I have a very deep respect for your interest in seeking therapy. It is an honest and brave way to move towards growth.

It needs to be felt and integrated. I use Polyvagal theory and EFT/Tapping to inform the psychological work that we will embark on together.

It can be scary when you first realize that your alcohol or drug use has gotten out of control, or when a loved one's use is starting to affect you in negative ways.

Reaching out for help for the first time can be difficult, fearing that once you share the truth with someone you will be given nothing but judgment in return.

Have you tried everything to make your life better and it doesn't seem to work, or it works for a short time and things go right back to the way they were? Have you used alcohol or drugs to medicate uncomfortable feelings to feel normal, but never really feel normal no matter how hard you try? When we have suffered life-altering disappointments we tend to feel that we are different from others. When we try to connect with others, sometimes it doesn't work out as we anticipated. These disappointments can make us feel there is no hope for us.

Life is sometimes stressful, confusing, and painful, presenting us with unique challenges to overcome. I help clients with clinical and practical interventions to work on goals such as regaining confidence, getting unstuck, stopping drinking, and improving relationships.

I work with clients who want to improve their relationships, whether they are just hitting some bumps in the road or are on the brink of splitting up. I also use my expertise with couples to help individuals struggling to find and maintain healthy relationships, and those who want to work on their relationship but whose partner isn't yet ready. I don't just work with couples occasionally - relationships are my specialty. This includes working with couples where one or both partners struggle with substance abuse or addiction.

Our individual experiences shape us - they inform our behaviors, perceptions, and attitudes about ourselves and the world around us. In particular our experiences of grief, loss, and trauma have a significant impact on who we are as adults. My work in addictions has shown me the implications that unresolved childhood trauma and grief has on a person, and how it shows up in adulthood. Unprocessed emotions are stored in the crevices of our mind, waiting for the opportunity to be expressed. My goal is to help you process stuck emotions, grief and trauma in a way that works for you, and at your own pace.

***Virtual online therapy only at this time.*** Life can become difficult at times. We have fears and regrets, anxieties and sorrows, insecurities and doubts. People are searching for greater happiness, healthier relationships, increased meaning, and rewarding accomplishments. But despite these challenges, I believe we all have the power to overcome. Hearts can be healed, fears can be conquered, and depression can be overcome. The act of being seen, heard, and understood is healing in and of itself. My approach to therapy is one of being very genuine and often mixing in humor.
