I am a seasoned Licensed Professional and Chemical Dependency Counselor with over 30 years of combined experience in Counseling, Coaching, Training, and Administration. I love helping people work through the struggles of drug and alcohol addictions. I also work with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, addictions, trauma, and life transitions.
I use a combination of evidenced based theories – Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral, Brief Solution Focused, and Rational Emotive to identify realistic next steps, and skills needed to move forward.
Commitment to the process is completely and totally in your hands. I would love to walk alongside you in your journey. Contact the office today to get started!
