Dual Diagnosis Therapists in Englewood, CO

I've been in the addictions / mental health (dual diagnosis) field for over 20 years in Colorado, and have been ‘clean’ 30 years (as of 9/1/93). I sincerely believe in clients' ability to make enduring change, after they have learned to identify and accept what's not working in their lives. I'm a very accessible and active therapist, and I offer specialized groups to meet clients' needs. Groups occur Tuesday through Saturday, depending on group assignment. Individual sessions are often a part of effective treatment planning, in addition to, or instead of, group format. Reasonable pricing.

I have extensive experience helping people attain sobriety and address the underlying issues that are often associated with substance use disorder. I have been providing therapy services and supervised other therapists for over 19 years. I love sitting with people and doing the work it takes to have a good life.

Are you ready to work together towards changing your life? Is the addiction of a loved one or your own addiction creating problems? If you are struggling with addiction, depression, anxiety, or a life transition, we can work through your issues by focusing on your strengths to find solutions.

Many situations in life can be difficult, causing us stress and challenging us emotionally. In my experience, individuals can overcome struggles and decrease stress by recognizing their emotions and increasing their ability to cope in future situations. To encourage positive change and a balanced life, I focus on the individual's strengths. I provide support for individuals as they go through life transitions and stressors, past and present traumas, grief and loss, and recovery from substance use.

If you're looking to find answers to what is keeping you stuck in your patterns, I can help find that by exploring what the barriers are and by focusing on what's pulling you in a new direction.

When it's appropriate, I share information based on research, history, or theory to challenge and clarify what's keeping you stuck.

Do you ever feel like you’re knee deep in…stuff? Now you’re here, shopping for a therapist, which is probably not how you’d like to be spending your time (that Netflix won’t watch itself). Let's be honest, seeing all those letters after someone's name looks impressive but what good is alphabet soup if that person doesn’t “get” you. You need someone who you can be real with, who'll be there with you through "the suck." I'm an AF veteran who's been through “the suck” many times before and am now here to help guide you through this journey.

Sometimes life throws you a curveball. If you are here it means you are hoping to change your life for the better. Maybe you are feeling disconnected from the people and things that are important to you. Maybe you feel like you are only living half a life. Sometimes your problems become the only thing that you can focus on, and the life you want to live seems a distant dream. What if there was a way to get unstuck from your problems and get back into your life? Whatever weight you are carrying, these struggles do not have to become your story.

With 10 years of experience working with others and having worked through my own struggles, I hope to help you live a more satisfying and meaningful life. I work specifically with individuals and partners with substance abuse, relationship issues, anxiety, life transitions, narcissistic abuse, and trauma.
