As a dually licensed clinical therapist, my practice focuses on substance abuse and/or dual diagnosis (mental health concerns co-occurring with substance abuse). With extensive experience facilitating relapse prevention group therapy, I incorporate important topics to assist individuals with the recovery process. Some of which include identification of triggers, utilization of coping strategies, and development of relapse prevention plans. Additionally, I work with individuals who are solely seeking mental health treatment for issues including but not limited to depression, anxiety, grief, and/or stress disorders.

I'm here to help by providing a supportive environment to help navigate the challenges of addiction and relapse while encouraging you through your journey to sobriety. I understand that addiction isn't just to alcohol and substances. Together we can navigate the challenges that addiction presents as well as exploring the root of your addiction. Together we can explore the relationship that has been created with addiction and collectively create a more positive and healthier lifestyle.
