I help individuals improve their response to daily life stressors, manage anxiety and depression symptoms, recover from childhood or adult trauma, maintain a recovery-oriented lifestyle, and address pending substance related legal matters (drug convictions, DUI/DWI). I help families address the shame and stigma of having a loved one incarcerated, experiencing a substance use condition, or mental health diagnosis build their resilience and establish healthy boundaries.
As a licensed professional counselor and licensed clinical alcohol and drug counselor my goal is to help consumers improve their mental health and emotional well-being. The desired outcome for all consumers is overall improvement in personal wellness and functioning that's consistent with your goals.
Let’s discuss your counseling or evaluation needs and see if I can help. I have 20+ years of experience providing counseling to families, teenagers, and adults with substance use disorders, trauma, mental health conditions, and criminal justice involvement.
