Should you contact me, you will find that I am an attentive, genuinely concerned, boundaried, and professional therapist with advanced training in the treatment of trauma related distress; personality disorders; inhibitions and self defeat in work, love, and creativity; and compulsions in the substance use, sexual behavior, and work performance.
Feeling down? Anxious? Exhausted?
Doubting your self and your ability to make important changes in your life? Despite your best intentions, are you always getting in your own way?
Maybe you take much better care of others than yourself.
Perhaps "you have it all", but still feel empty or bored? Are your thoughts dominated by self criticisms, fear, and troublesome memories?
Perhaps, you have read self help books and have tried trendy quick-fixes. Why continue to go at it alone?
Therapy can help you recognize the patterns of relating to your self and others that contribute to your ongoing distress.

The hardest part about getting help is that first step where we have to ask. It takes a lot of courage to admit we don't have the right tools for the job, especially when that job is our happiness and fulfillment. Maybe we push people away, or get angry out of nowhere, or carry so much stress we can't sleep. Burnout and depression weigh us down and make it hard to connect with those around us. It makes sense to look for help, especially now.

Couples often reach out to me to fine-tune their communication or to address larger unresolved issues, including infidelity, substance abuse, a partner who shuts down or withdraws, anger, jealousy, and sexual dissatisfaction, among other reasons. Most couples just want to stop fighting, stop hurting, and regain closeness. My process starts with meeting both of you for the first meeting and then just once separately to get to know each of you better. After that, all future sessions are strictly couple's sessions. I also offer personalized Intensives for couples in crisis.

Since 2013, I have been serving clients struggling with trauma, PTSD, addiction, relationship/family conflict, depression, and anxiety. Therapy is a journey into yourself. It is choosing to step out of your comfort zone into an uncomfortable place in order to grow and heal. When we face and process our feelings and emotions, they become less overwhelming and painful. I am trauma-focused and see therapy through a lens of trauma, which is on a spectrum. I use traditional talk therapy, IFS (Internal Family Systems), EMDR, CBT, Hypnotherapy, and somatic approaches. I provide individual, couples, family, and group therapy.

Like you, my clients have endured traumatic experiences akin to those depicted in movies: being sexually assaulted by a parent, having it concealed, and being ostracized as the family outcast; being demeaned, bullied by relatives, and left to survive on their own; discovering after decades that the child they’ve raised isn’t biologically theirs due to infidelity; witnessing the suicide, homicide, or severe abuse of loved ones while hiding and holding their breath under the bed or in the closet; and facing discrimination and oppression because of their race or whom they choose to love.

Substance Use 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.
