Maybe you're noticing that even the smallest inconveniences feel more difficult to handle than usual. You might be someone who has lived most of their life putting others ahead of yourself, and it’s no longer giving you a positive sense of self. Instead, you notice yourself feeling more tired, easily overwhelmed, and wanting to disconnect from things and people in your life. You might also be hearing that negative voice in your head telling you to ’just get over it’ or that you might even deserve to feel bad because ‘you’re inadequate’. You’ve spent most of your life engaging in this pattern, and feel stuck with changing this.

If you've made it this far and you're reading this, you must be a Warrior. Really. Having Substance Use Disorder (SUD), or loving someone who has SUD, is not for the weak at heart. I liken it's reach to a tornado, an EF5 tornado actually. But here's the thing; You and I working together - we are to SUD what FEMA is to a tornado. Together, we can pick up the wreckage, organize it, decide what parts you want to keep, which ones you want to fix, and where to start fresh. You are not alone. In fact, 1 in 3 American families are struggling with SUD in the home. 22 Million Americans are in long-term recovery. All of them needed help too.

I see you scrolling, checking out all these profiles. Bit overwhelming huh? How do you choose? Who is right? Will they judge you? The cool thing is that it's so trendy to have a therapist; weren't you aware? That's why it's so hard to find one these days! But, it is still kind of scary to take the plunge. That's not how it's supposed to be you know; when you enter my office, my one and only goal is to help you feel accepted just how you are, no matter what you're bringing through the door. Kids making you crazy? Partner on your last nerve? Memories or old trauma preventing your from feeling like you can move forward? I can help.
