I can help you overcome barriers to living up to your full potential by working with you to explore: What are these barriers? How can we heal these specific challenges together? I bring both academic expertise and personal experience to my practice, which enables me to guide you on your path to becoming the best version of yourself. Having navigated and overcome significant challenges in my own life, I understand the resilience and commitment required to transform pain into growth. My primary focus has been working with individuals in addiction recovery, particularly within the LGBTQ+ community.
Here are some highlights of my qualifications and experience: Over 25 years of experience in the field of addiction recovery and certified in addiction counseling. Certified Ambassador with the Academy of Cognitive Behavior Therapy. Extensive training in Prolonged Exposure Therapy, a trauma-focused therapeutic approach. Proficient in Seeking Safety Therapy,
As a BIPOC therapist, I understand how difficult it can be to find a professional who intimately engages with the complexities of the BIPOC experience within the "dominant culture" of the United States. While many therapists are culturally sensitive and aware, the lived experience of navigating life as a BIPOC individual is a distinctive quality!
