I’ve been working in the addiction recovery field for over a decade, and in that time, I’ve seen how deeply substance use can affect not just individuals, but their entire support systems. That’s why I work with individuals, couples, and families—because healing is most powerful when it includes everyone impacted. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling disconnected from self or uncertain about what matters most. I offer a grounded, supportive space where you can reconnect with your thoughts and emotions, hear your own voice more clearly, and begin to understand what you truly need.
I have a particular interest in helping people navigate relationship challenges, questions about life direction, and mental health concerns. I believe that when we explore the root causes of disconnection and dissatisfaction, the reliance on substances often begins to fade naturally and life feels much easier.
Clients often describe me as warm, steady, and collaborative. Many share that working together feels like finally being able to take a deep breath. I would love to help you create a path that feels authentic to you, along with practical steps to help you move forward. Call/Email to set up a free complementary 15 min consultation call.

Relationships are impacted both by substance use behaviors and by recovery. People often assume that once they're sober, everything will be easier. Alas, what's often revealed is a series of relational messes in the wake of one's change. I have a passion for helping couples and families heal from these shifts and find new ways to relate.
