With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I have developed a comprehensive understanding of the complexities associated with addiction and its impact on individuals and their families. Recognizing that addiction often intersects with underlying mental health issues such as trauma, depression, and anxiety, I have dedicated my career to working with adults, adolescents, and their families to address these challenges and facilitate a path to healing. My approach is grounded in treating individuals within the context of their broader environment. I believe it is essential to consider the influence of family, school,
I am a licensed addiction professional and a licensed clinical social worker with experience treating adults, adolescents, and their families. I have been trained in EMDR and utilize Psychodrama and Humanistic techniques in my practice. I am a student of Gabor Mate's Compassionate Inquiry approach, and offer one on one intensive mentoring and coaching.
It is an honor to join you on your path to healing. I bring passion, skill and experience in a compassionate and safe environment.
