Ready to feel more steady and in control? If alcohol or substance use has been on your mind, if you’re worried about a loved one, or if anxiety, stress, or past experiences feel heavy, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I offer a warm, supportive space to talk through what’s coming up now and gently explore where these patterns may have started. Many people I work with are capable and caring, yet overwhelmed or quietly struggling. Together, we’ll focus on easing shame, finding steadier ways to cope, and building more connection, clarity, and confidence—at a pace that feels right for you.
I create a space where you can speak freely, share unfiltered thoughts, and explore what hurts, without fear of judgment. Clients appreciate my down-to-earth style, transparency and sense of humor. My harm reduction approach blends empathy with practical skills for change. I work with adults, families and groups navigating substance use, trauma and anxiety.
Reach out for a free phone consultation- no pressure, this is just a chance to see if we're a good fit. I'm happy to answer questions and support you as you navigate this process. I'm out-of-network with insurance and handle claim filing, so you can focus on care. I look forward to connecting!
