Co-Founder of Maxant & Curtis Mental Health. Finding a therapist is about the "match" as much as about the skill and experience of the clinician. I find that clients who feel the "match" with my work are looking for a practical dialogue about active problem solving, as well as feelings of trust and connection. The journey to find a matching therapist can be frustrating, and I work with clients to identify that early in the process. In therapy, some of our most difficult thoughts and feelings need a safe and supportive place to be heard, and ensuring that our work will be safe and respectful to your needs is goal number one.

If you or a loved one has problems with substance, I can help. I work with people and families with substance issues- misuse of alcohol, cannabis, stimulants, and other addictive substances. My approach moves at your own pace, without pushing, digging, or agendas. I work with family members and loved ones to provide education and support to reduce feelings of isolation. I specialize in addiction, alcoholism, as well as co-occurring issues underlying addiction such as depression, mood disorders, anxiety, and trauma. Through therapy things start to seem possible that didn’t seem that way before.
