Finding and navigating the path to recovery from addiction presents one of the more difficult, yet meaningful journeys the human spirit can take. This transformation, luckily, is something that no person ever has to do alone. Throughout the years of my personal recovery, I've developed a deep passion for connecting with others and human nature as it relates to feeling less alone in the world. Something I believe to be true is the idea that everything in our life connects. Through constellating these connections, an image emerges that which we can learn from.

Wounds from the past and throughout active use can block one's ability to personally see these connections, and can create barriers towards experiencing safety in moments. In cultivating a mutually safe and trusting relationship, restoring a loving vision in these areas of pain are my hopes in working with you in your recovery journey.

In collaboration, let's support you in finding the courage to take whatever leaps necessary to achieve your recovery goals, your dreams, and to unveil the beauty you add to this world. Please feel free to reach out via email or phone number provided to see if this relationship could be the vehicle you need to find freedom.
