Significant Substance Use Disorder, Addiction, Trauma, PTSD experience.
Life can be tough. Everyone is different, so therapy should be different for everyone. Therapy does not have to include awkward silences, with the main question being "how do you feel about that...?". Therapy can be a conversation, with back and forth communication. Therapy can include laughter, sarcasm, and personality. Therapy can be casual and it can be intense. Therapy is defined by what you want and need, and its okay to not know what that is yet or how to communicate that. Our work will be collaborative; the support will align with your personality, experiences, and goals. My approach is aimed to emphasize realistic healing.
