My approach is to provide psycho-education on a number of different topics as they come up organically so that you can learn in conjunction with healing. I use a trauma-informed care approach and aim to keep the therapeutic space as safe as possible: I take this very seriously and know safety must be present in order for true work to happen. You are the one who ultimately decides where we go and my ultimate role is to be right by your side on your journey of healing and exploration.

Since I was young mental health was always a topic in my home, so becoming a 3rd generation therapist was not surprising to those around me. When I realized prioritizing self-care, setting boundaries, & naming feelings were not normal dinner table topics, I wanted to change that. I am passionate about destigmatizing mental health and making tools more accessible. My goal is to empower my clients to use their innate gifts and strengths to conquer anything that comes their way. Taking the first step is brave, but continuing to show up and work towards your goals is courageous.

Difficulties in our lives are often linked to problems in our relationships with people close to us. Therapy can help us examine our behavior and create ways so that we can remove the roadblocks keeping us from improving upon our relationships.

Drug Abuse Therapists

How do substance and drug recovery or rehabilitation programs work?

In inpatient programs, individuals live in a facility with other clients in recovery; in outpatient programs, individuals reside at home. These facilities are staffed with healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, psychologists, counselors, and psychotherapists. Staff often also includes people who have recovered themselves, serving as mentors and guides. These programs may use abstinence, harm reduction, detoxification, psychotherapy, and other methods.

How do 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?

Members of 12-step programs help each other reach abstinence and work to maintain it. These programs promote complete change in the individual’s emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual perspectives. Some programs require that new members attend 90 meetings in 90 days. Many people do attend these programs in conjunction with their work in psychotherapy; the combination of therapy along with 12-step can be extremely effective.

How does harm reduction combined with psychotherapy work?

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, harm reduction prevents death, injury, disease, overdose, and substance misuse. People who choose harm reduction for substance use reduce the amount of drugs they consume. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.

Are there specific medications for substance and drug use?

There are medications approved to treat substance use disorder—such as buprenorphine, methadone, naltrexone, and acamprosate. These medications do help people cope with substance use as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone can help reduce cravings, methadone is an opioid medication used to treat severe pain, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.
