Are you tired of the insanity? With many years of being an ally to those who suffer with substance use and mental health, I have made the decision to use my personal experiences to try and help others. I provide support to adolescents, young adults and adults who may struggle with substance use, codependency concerns or allies of those who struggle with substance use. Those who eventually make their way to see me are usually experiencing a difficult time within their life, which will be met within a judgment free zone with compassion and best clinical practices.

It is never too late to become who you want to be, and its okay if that's not who you wanted to be yesterday. Never settle for anything.
Families are the role model for who er become. Loving couples model the way their children view romantic partnerships and the way they believe they should be treated when they become adults and enter into partnerships. Keeping the family healthy is a lot of work and I love providing strategies and new perspective on how to make it the most rewarding accomplishment of your lives.

I work extensively with clients who have experienced trauma, depression, and anxiety of all ages.
I use a variety of approaches. The flash technique, EMDR, and polyvagal and somatic therapies can be helpful with trauma. For depression and anxiety, I tend to use more symptom management approaches, coping skills, and learning about the connections between thoughts, feelings, and underlying beliefs. Over time, these can lead to real change.
